I generally don't read romance, and found this book boring. The writing is lovely but I found the characters dull and forgettable. I slogged through the first 100 pages before tossing it aside.

Sorry, I'm not re-posting this! After spending two days in Venice on a tour, being very intrigued, but not sure if there was enough to do to justify a longer stay, this book makes me want to move there! Incredibly romantic true story, with recipes and (the reason I'm keeping it) a list of things to do in Venice not found in any guide book. Highly recommended, but you'll have to get it from someone else!

good story, fast read
I liked. It was kind of slow at first, but built up steam and by the last 3rd, I couldn't put it down. The author has a droll and fun sense of humor. I love that she calls her husband "the stranger" and describes his sad eyes as "dead bunny eyes" if I remember correctly. I can't wait to get the next installment.
THOROUGHLY ENJOYED IT!
