Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. I thought that this book was a great one and made me think of Under the Tuscan Sun. The imagery was great!Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. I am glad I pushed through to the end. There were a lot of characters all introduced at once and I felt like a ping pong ball going back and forth between them. I had to go back, even half way through the book, to just get some characters straight. The concept of the book was a good one, though the result was a bit too confusing to follow at many points. The author did a great job making me feel like I was in Tuscany. I question a need for all the "hook ups", made even more confusing because I couldn't keep the characters straight. I think the cover is great - I like the physical look and feel of this book, and would have pulled it off the shelf in a library or store. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Can one college semester abroad change the course of your life? Bella Rossini, a vivacious college junior, is suddenly thrust into living in Tuscany with seven strangers during one life-altering summer. Meet Hope, the sturdy and practical girl, steadfast in her loyalty to her boyfriend; Meghan and Karen, identical twins with an eye for fashion and beauty to match; Stillman, haunted by his hard past, and Phillip, an athlete, both fueled by competition; Lee, by family mandate in pre-med; and Rune, the Hollywood-bound wild child. While uncovering the charms of Italy, they discover both friendship and love. After their summer, life and loss happens. Returning to Tuscany 30 years later, they plunge on a startling collision course that none of them could have predicted. Set against the allure of Tuscany, with an irresistible fusion of heartbreak and humor, this debut novel, "To Tuscany with Love," explores the fear of letting the past determine the future and the power of friendship.
