A review by britwhimsy
Under the Tuscan Sun: 20th-Anniversary Edition by Frances Mayes

1.0

I didn't finish it and read about halfway. I was picking this up off and again between reading other books. I just do not like leaving a book unfinished! I took this to work as I normally read on breaks and found myself going to the gym more often instead of reading. It was not enough of an escape and the writing style did not hold me. Although, I wished I could eat some of the Italian food described while reading about it! I also did love the movie that holds the name, but the two should really be treated separately. The characters and story were not the same to me except the portion of a woman buying a house in Italy to renovate it. That is really all! Although, I do recall her eating Italian food in the movie too ;-)
