Stars in an Italian Sky

Admittedly, it took me a little while to warm up to this story, but by the end, I had tears in my eyes. Yet again, a gorgeous cover drew me in. Of course, anything set in or around Italy is also going to pique my interest immediately.

With a duel timeline, we follow Giovanna and Vincenzo's 1940s love story and the struggles that go along with it. We also get to know Giovanna's family, her sister Faustina a constant presence in her life. In 2017, newly engaged Cass and Luca find a common bond through their grandparents, uncovering long-buried secrets.

It took me a little while to get into the plot but it picked up a lot by the middle. Usually I tend to enjoy the historical timeline the most, but this was a case where I enjoyed the modern one the most. It was an enjoyable switch. I loved Cass' character especially as well as the Italian backdrop.

Thanks to NetGalley and Putnam for sending me a free digital ARC to read and review!
