My Thoughts: This was the perfect little vacation of a book! I really enjoyed immersing myself in the story. It's definitely a women's fiction, feel good kind of book, and that was just what I needed.
Ginny is going through some stuff in her life. I was glad that she used the trip to Italy to be a kind of healing journey for her. I liked seeing her navigate difficult decisions, and try to figure out what she wanted her life to be.
This was an enjoyable read. I can see a lot of people liking this one.
