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

Forget Nico: Falling for the Wrong Italian (The Italian Saga #3)Forget Nico: Falling for the Wrong Italian by Gaia B. Amman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is a young adult romance set in 1990s Italy. There is a lot of teenage drama and angst, which I don’t really like to be perfectly honest, because it just seems really superficial, like they’re too young, and there just wasn’t really much plot. I appreciated a lot of what the main character Leda feels in that it speaks to the realities of life as a teenage girl and the mess of relationships and is thus insightful. At the same time, the pacing is a bit off and the relationship between Leda and her mother Starry isn’t explored as much as I would have liked. Nevertheless, I enjoyed following Leda’s journey, having read Book #2.
