Lina’s mother has recently passed away and
her dying request was for Lina to visit Tuscany and stay with a man named
Howard. When sixteen year old Lina
arrives at Tuscany she is unsure what her mother wanted her to find there, but Lina
is given one of her mother’s journals.
As Lina tries to put together her mother’s story before Lina was born,
she also finds friendship and hope in Tuscany.
This is a fun summer read with likable characters and an enchanting
setting. There is the mystery throughout
of Lina’s mother’s love story and Lina’s current journey through love and everything comes together in the end.
This is a very clean novel and is easy to recommend.
