Every Sunday

Excellent, family, faith, and love, all pulled together in a fascinating way! Enjoy all of Peter Pezzelli’s books. Follow him!

I have no patience when a writer creates a character whose English is less than perfect and it is written phonetically.

OK. So I took a little liberty with that line above from the movie "Rocky," but if you read EVERY SUNDAY, you'll get the same idea as I did that Johnny isn't exactly Ivy League material. So why, then, is a professor of comparative literature (Vicki Sanders) at Brown University interested in talking to him? You'll also agree with me that they don't have very much in common. For example: While talking to Vicki after doing something he didn't think he should have done, and I won't spoil the scene for you, a shocked Johnny Catini asks, "Does this make me have like-what do they call it-an edible complex?" "A what?" Vicki exclaims. "You know, like the guy I read about in high school. Edible rex or whatever the hell his name was." "Oedipus!" cries Vicki. "Not edible!" Or this bit of dialog between them, "Where are we goin' tonight? he says as they stroll along the sidewalk. "You mean, go-ing?" says Vicki. "Huh?" "I-N-G ing," she says good-naturedly. "You know, sounds like eeen-guh." "I don't get it," says Johnny. "You always say doin', goin', havin', bein'. What is it you have against the letter g?" "Nothin'," he replies. See what I mean? And there are many more examples of conversations like this between them in the book. Like, ya know, Johnny woulda said, "I don't get it." I was disappointed in this novel by Peter Pezzelli, especially since I enjoyed reading the four other novels he wrote set in Providence, RI all having Italian-American characters. 3 Stars

This, book was filled with wonderful family history, and lots of love shared by a family, wonderful traditions. I am Italian and love reading about old Italian culture, food, and family living. Such a great life in Italy.

Loved the characters,as a family , very much like people I grew up with. The strength that a strong family gives to each person in it it's life can be a .msource of everyday wisdom Making our path thru life easier to find

I didn't enjoy this one of his as much as all his others. I would recommend anything he writes, especially if you like books on family, love, and good values . MRG

Read this for my book club and felt it was an interesting dilemma for a son, but a joke for the reader. I would not recommend.

The beginning was confusing and it did not interest me. So I stopped reading after 2 chapters.

I like Peter Pezzelli's books, there is something wholesome about them. I like this one in particular. It is unusual in that the narrator is dead, but with a very good sense of humour! So, enjoy reading!

This book is not as good as his first book " Home to Italy " I don't like the story line or the language in this book. I am still in the process of reading it so maybe it has a spectacular ending. I'm not expecting that but you never know.
