One Italian Summer by Rebecca Serle

4.0

---

I picked this one up for something easy and quick to listen to as an audio book, and it did the job. I wasn't super impressed with the person narrating it, I felt like it was pretty monotone in comparison to what I'm used to. The story was interesting enough to keep me continuing with it, but I found myself so frustrated with the main character, however, I don't think that was a bad thing because it just showed how codependent she was with her mother without really realizing it at the time. I enjoyed the descriptions, especially since it was based in Italy for the majority of the novel. Parts of it are still confusing to me even after I've sat with it for a minute, but maybe it's not a book for me to understand. Who knows. If i decide to pick it up again, I will read it instead of listen to it.
