Rating: 2.5/ 5The plot: The follow up to 'Flirting in Italian.' This novel continues Violet's summer journey to shop, sight see, enjoy the arts, and travel around Italy. However, her main mission continues as she seeks to uncover the truth of identity and family history. Throw in the fact that h...
Decent, tight plot observant enough to make great points about British aristocracy (in my humble and likely misinformed opinion, anyway) but not self-aware enough to make any point a subtle one. Also it starts to get annoying when descriptions of the characters' personalities go downhill from class ...
To see full review click here: http://yalbookbriefs.blogspot.com/2012/10/flirting-in-italian-lauren-henderson.htmlI have mix feelings about this book. It was okay at first. But a bit of a disappointment. The first thirty or so pages were really excellent. The premise was great. A historical mys...
"Ci sono trenta modi per salvare il mondo, ma uno solo perche il mondo salvi me—che io voglia star con te, e tu voglia star con me."Visiting in Italy is the way Violet chose to spend her summer vacation. But it’s not really her plan - not since she saw a portrait of a young Italian Girl from an 18th...
It’s just not summer if you don’t read at least one one book (1) about a Summer Romance, (2) with a Clever Main Character, and (3) an Exotic Setting. Flirting in Italian satisfies all three criteria. Violet is off to Italy, seeking to find out more information about a painting of a girl that looks r...

(For the record, I've been blogging for a year and this is only the second DNF, the first being The Restaurant at the End of the Universe.) But having gotten ...
While the weather in Holland hasn't gotten the message that it's almost Summer, or even Spring, I was in the mood for some cute Summery contemporary romance. And granted, there's not much to this summary, but it sounded like it would be just the thing! Seeing Magan from Rather Be Reading go WTF??? m...
I wanted to love this one. I'm so sad I didn't. I was super in the mood for a fun, cute, romantic story with an engaging mystery mixed in - and in Italy to boot! It started on a good note, but unfortunately, it didn't turn out as expected.Sure it's got plenty of cute Italian boys, but when these boy...
Reviewed at http://www.mandikayereads.com/archives/2091 (6/22/12)This was one of the biggest disappointments of the year so far. It tried too hard to be everything for everybody, and as a result the story was all over the place. The primary story seems to be that of Violet searching for her family h...
