    Young summer romance
  

*by G***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 30, 2017*

Lovely gentle YA romance - and set in one of the most gorgeous cities in the world, Rome - plus a side trip to Positano which was great too. The descriptions of food had me salivating. The characters are well drawn, and each has their own personality and depth. I read this book in the heat of a Spanish beach - and it was perfect - just like the title says 'a perfect summer read'.

    This Deserves More Hype
  

*by K***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 27, 2020*

I read this book between July 2nd and July 5th, 2020 and gave it four stars, but it was more like 4.5. At the beginning I thought it was a shorter and easier read than I'd anticipated, but it deals with heavy topics, so I took my time. The main character's dad recently died and she's had a very hard time with that, which is totally understandable. Milly, the main character, and her family, are flying from London, where they live, to Italy for Milly's aunt's wedding, and it all feels to weird without her dad around. Luke, who is Milly's cousin's best friend, will be joining them, and of course we know what that means, right?Turns out that Milly and Luke have some sort of a past, but things are not as cute and pretty as you'd expect from your typical YA book, because this isn't your typical YA book. And because it isn't, there is a conversation about Milly's sex drive and sexual desire, which I'd never read in YA before, or at least not normalizing women having a sexual desire in such an open and no-nonsense way before. That being said, I feel like this is a quieter book in terms of the hype that it got when it was released. If I hadn't found it via NetGalley, I don't think I would've found it at all. I would say it reminds me of Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson, although I read that book a while ago and I'm not sure if I feel the same way about it as I did when I first read it.

    Great and Different YA
  

*by B***K on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 7, 2017*

One Italian Summer was a breath of fresh air in YA. I read quite a bit of young adult novels and this one was definitely a fresh take on grieving the loss of a parent. This book brings us face-to-face with three sisters, the middle one, Milly, being the main character. When their aunt is getting married in Italy, they take a trip with their mother. But even though they are hoping it will somehow help heal the damage that the death of their father has taken on their family, reminders of time spent in Italy with him abound. A distraction never hurts though, and Milly definitely has one in her forever crush, her cousin's best friend, Luke.I love that this book was a beautiful blend of teen angst, the emotional aspect of grief, and love. It was sort of women's fiction meets young adult. I loved every bit of it and I absolutely adored the sisters. In fact, I would even go onto read another book with these characters. Definitely give this book a try!I was given this book via Netgalley in exchange for a fair and honest review.
