Review: This is a delightful story...one of my favorite books!

Summary: A delightful read
Review: Well, you've already heard about the story. Just wanted to add that the characters were so real, it was as if I were really there with them. A wonderful turn of events at the end. Caught me off guard. Very enjoyable. Beautiful writing. Now I've got to rent the movie.

Summary: This book is a vacation from your life!
Review: Whenever my life becomes cold, dreary and unlovely, I can crawl between these covers and escape to Italy and the companionship of four interesting, generous women. I emerge a few hours later refreshed and renewed. It's a lot cheaper than therapy or a real vacation to Italy and doesn't carry the hazards of a hangover or shopping spree but I think it does as much more real good, providing relief and release. You should all own a copy.

Summary: The Enchanted April
Review: Wonderful! I could read the book and watch the movie over and over! Treat yourself to a vacation in an Italian paradise with real characters and a physical beauty you could reach out and touch. Von Arnim makes this simple plot so magical and warm it makes you want to visit San Salvatore too!
