The Star-Crossed Sisters of Tuscany

The Star-Crossed Sisters of Tuscany

my review : ✮✮✮✮

I love this book!! 🍝 📖

This book allowed me to escape cold and dark Chicago for a vibrant Italian getaway 🇮🇹

This is the story of Filomena Fontana. Filomena is the second-born daughter, and for the past 200 years, every second-born daughter in her family has been unable to find lasting love 😢. Filomena works at her family bakery 🧁 in Brooklyn, and her life is …. safe (aka boring). That is, until her great aunt Poppy invites her on a once-in-a-lifetime Italian adventure.

Mix yourself a Negroni (1 part Campari, 1 part Gin, 1 part sweet red Vermouth) and look at Google images of the picturesque town of Ravello while reading this book.

you’ll love this book if you love:

  • Armchair Travel

  • Self Love

my favorite quote:

“Being lost is where the beauty lies. Lost in a book. Lost in someone’s eyes. Lost in a symphony so sweet it brings you to tears.” She smiles. “Lost in a beautiful floating city on a starry night. This is magical, yes? It’s being found that’s the disappointment.”
