(3) YA Following her mom's sudden death from pancreatic cancer, sixteen-year-old Lina moves to Tuscany to stay with the father she just learned exists. Lina's mother's journal (snippets of which are interspersed) from her own time in the region helps shape Lina's experience and sparks a little mystery. The novel's well-rendered, swoon-worthy setting adds emotional weight to the romantic subplots (both Lina's and her mother's).
