Our Italian Summer by Jennifer Probst
4.0
If you want a book that makes you want to pack your bags and plan an Italian getaway then look no further!(or just pretend because you know Covid life...)
This story of three generations of women was heartfelt and a great escapist kind of read. It touched on the compelling issues of mother/daughter relationships and the importance of honest communication and taking the time to understand one another. I loved the descriptions and felt like I was there on the tour with them enjoying the beautiful ruins and landscapes of Italy.
While yes there was some romance infused in the story (as it should be with Italian men in the picture), it was the family aspect and the lessons they learned about themselves and each other along their journey that kept me smiling through the chapters. If you want a feel good read that also tackles some family dynamics and imagine your traveling through Italy then this is a must read for you!
