Trigiani weaves together episodes from Ave Maria's life in a small American town, her New York City past, and her trip with her daughter to her parent's home village in Italy. This is the third book in the “Big Stone Gap” trilogy. Ave Maria’s daughter Etta is now a teenager (or almost? Anyway, by the end of the book, she’s 18). I don’t know that there’s really a plot. It’s their relationship as Etta grows up, and Etta making stupid teenage mistakes/decisions. There are a couple of trips to New York (for Ave Maria) and to Italy (for the entire family (I think)). And there are some good secondary characters. So, without an actual plot, and it moved pretty slow… and teenage girls. It was ok, can’t say much more than that for me. I loved Ave Maria’s best friend (at first), but she also made a stupid decision that I was quite disgusted with later (you’d think she was the teenager!). I think I’m very much like Ave Maria. I’m not a parent, but it wouldn’t surprise me if I had been, that I’d be similar to her. I listened to the audio, read by the author herself. She has a slightly monotone voice, but also has a Southern accent (I always thought she’d have an Italian accent!). It did keep my interest, for the most part, it just wasn’t a terribly exciting book. And oops, I thought it was a trilogy, but it appears there is a 4th book. I think I am unlikely to pick it up. The author Adriana Trigiani again read this third book in the Big Stone Gap Series. I enjoyed following the tumultuous mother/daughter relationship of Ave Maria and Etta as Etta proceeds through her teenage years. The community of familiar townspeople also returns in this book and just as in real life their lives develop and change. But of all of the book's characters, Ave Maria must adapt to the greatest changes. I look forward to listening to Home to Big Stone Gap to conclude this series . keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
