Forget Nico: Falling for the Wrong Italian (Italian Teens novel 1, The Italian Saga) by Gaia B. Amman – Review by Meg Tyrrell

Forget Nico: Falling for the Wrong Italian by Gaia B. Amman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Gaia Amman was a new author for me, and I’ve not read any teenage books since I was one myself (which was a long time ago). I was a little worried I wouldn’t be able to connect with the characters since I”m old enough to be their mother. Boy was I wrong! This book was so beautifully written and such detail given to each character, I absolutely couldn’t put this book down. Leda (Lee) is the main character we follow throughout her teen years. She is your normal teenage girl, with the same questions we all had at that age (and some still!). Through her eyes you see and remember what it’s like to be that young and what situations our teens go through. Another part of the reason I loved this book so much was for the Italian in it. Gaia left some Italian words intact and that just added to it for me. Absolutely a must read- no matter your age!
