I’m officially a Rebecca Serle fan!

A huge thank you to NetGalley and Atria Books for my advanced copy of One Italian Summer.

I absolutely loved this book!
I have read books by Rebecca Serle in the past and this is by far my favorite. I DNF’d The Dinner List and thought In Five Years was just OK.

What I Loved

*The Setting- One Italian Summer takes place in Positano. (A village on the Almalfi Coast) I’ve never really had a desire to visit Italy until now. I could vividly imagine the beautiful scenery, the sea breeze and the bright sun. It brought me joy.

*The Writing- Rebecca Serle books are easy to read and fairly short. One Italian Summer is under 300 pages.

*The Emotion- This book deals heavily in grief. As someone who has recently lost a parent I could very much relate to the main character. I loved the magical realism that was woven into the story. I would do anything to have just a few more moments with my father and I enjoyed watching Katy reconnect with her mom in a very unique way.
I was definitely invested.

Overall- highly recommend. I can definitely see myself revisiting this book via audio in the future. I look forward to reading more by this author.
