Not a bad book by any means. Just very slow. At some points, nothing happened at all. That’s not inherently a bad thing, but I need a stronger plot to keep me engaged. 

Though, I will say that it was a relaxing read. Lowkey, enjoyable, with a few bits of wisdom scattered throughout. 

Reminded me of my time in Florence for sure. Made me nostalgic in the best way. Made me hope my future is a lot like Evelyn’s.
