I loved love loved this book! What a beautiful tale of Lucia a woman growing up in Greenwich Village in a big Italian Family in the 1950's. If there has ever been a book that made me want to be in another time period,, this one is it.
Adriana Trigiani had me laughing and crying through out this story. The main character Lucia is a smart and successful girl for her age. She believes in herself and is highly independent. I felt that I could relate to her character and to her views on life, love, children and marriage.
I read this book because when I ready Very Valentine, by the same author there is mention of a movie being made about Lucia. I am so glad that I did read it. I can't help but think about the characters in Mrs. Trigiani's books, they are so beautifully developed.
