And Finally...Brava, Valentine

I have one more book for you today:  Brava, Valentine by Adriana Trigiani.  We were on vacation last week, and this is the perfect beach read.  It's not too deep but still very engaging, and Adriana describes places so well that you want to plan your next vacation while still on your current vacation.  In the case of this book, that would be Argentina.  I want to go now.  But back to Brava, Valentine.

Valentine Roncalli makes custom wedding shoes for her family's business, the Angelini Shoe Company.  Okay, she's got me right there.  Just the descriptions of the shoes is enough to keep on reading.  Throw in a crazy family and a VERY handsome Italian leather tanner and life in the beach chair gets pretty good.  Then she goes to Argentina to meet a cousin she never knew she had.  Family feuds and secrets anyone?  It sounds like a normal Italian family to me!

Brava, Valentine is the second book in a three part series by Adriana Trigiani.  The first is Very Valentine, and the third will be Ciao, Valentine.  See you at the beach!
