My gorgeous, sumptuous April read. Took my time with it as I wanted to really immerse myself in their trip to Italy and try to feel it. Obviously I can’t relate to rich white women’s problems and just swanning off to Italy for a month, but it was beautiful. Very moorish and full of gorgeous scenery and motifs.

I couldn't get into the story, a quarter of the way through and I felt like I didn't know any of the characters. The audiobook was difficult to follow.
