Valentine's Day

 Happy Valentine's Day!

My suggestion for Valentine's Day reading is a trilogy of books by best-selling author Adriana Trigiani, and named for main character, Valentine Roncalli.  This entertaining saga, set in New York City's Greenwich Village and in Italy, follows the tribulations and triumphs of young Valentine as she takes control of her family's struggling wedding shoe business in an effort to save it from extinction.  Romance and family shenanigans keep readers delightfully engaged from start to end.  I am eagerly awaiting the final book in the series, Ciao, Valentine, which will be published in August 2013.

The Valentine Trilogy . . . so far

If you read in the evening, I recommend a nice glass of Italian red wine and a box of chocolates to enhance your reading experience.

Enjoy life with books . . .and other pleasures.
