Waiting On Wednesday: Love, Lucy by April Lindner

“Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly event hosted by Jill over at Breaking The Spine, and it gives you a chance to spotlight a book that you are eagerly waiting to be released.

This week, I picked:

Love, Lucy

By April Lindner

Publication Date: January 27, 2015

From Goodreads:

While backpacking through Florence, Italy, during the summer before she heads off to college, Lucy Sommersworth finds herself falling in love with the culture, the architecture, the food...and Jesse Palladino, a handsome street musician. After a whirlwind romance, Lucy returns home, determined to move on from her "vacation flirtation." But just because summer is over doesn't mean Lucy and Jesse are over, too.

In this coming-of-age romance, April Lindner perfectly captures the highs and lows of a summer love that might just be meant to last beyond the season.

Why I picked it:

I really enjoyed reading Lindner’s first book, Jane (a retelling of Jane Eyre), and I am curious to see what kind of spin she puts on this retelling of A Room With a View.
