review 1: I had the pleasure of meeting this author who gave us a tour and tasting at Poliziano winery. She was a fabulous tour guide, and I'm pleased to say also a very entertaining writer. I downloaded her book before we flew home, and it made my 10 hour flight very enjoyable (well, as enjoyable as a 10-hour transatlantic flight can be). Having just been to most of the locales she writes about made her book come alive for me, but even if you haven't been there, you will still have a blast reading all about her "avventura". Her wit and sense of humor in the face of the obstacles thrown in her path made this book not just another boring memoir. This is a fast read that will leave you wanting to hear more of her stories.
review 2: Bit surprised that others loved this ... morebook so much. I thought it was enjoyable but average. The author is a lawyer who decides to pack it in and move to Italy but there was too much emphasis on her trying to find a job. Bit presumptuous that she'd be able to move to a country where she doesn't speak the language and just find a job. I'd have been disappointed as a tourist to go to a restaurant in montepulciano and have an American waitress serve me. I enjoyed the little titbits of info on Tuscany though and it was fun to read while I was on holiday in Tuscany. less
