Very Valentine
Very Valentine | Adriana Trigiani
17 posts | 24 read | 8 to read
In this contemporary family saga, the Angelini Shoe Company, makers of custom wedding shoes since 1903, is one of the last family businesses in Greenwich Village. On the brink of financial ruin, it falls to thirty-three-year-old Valentine Roncalli, the talented but unsuspecting apprentice, to bring her family's old-world craftsmanship into the twenty-first century. Juggling a romantic relationship with dashing chef Roman Falconi, her duty to her family, and a design competition for a prestigious department store, Valentine accompanies her grandmother and master artisan Teodora to Italy in the hope of finding inspiration. There, in Tuscany and on the Isle of Capri, she discovers her artistic voice and much more, turning her life around in ways she never expected.

I have found my new author that when I need a calming read with food I‘m all in! Valentine makes shoes with her grandma in NYC…Little Italy, a new found love, a trip to Capri and family fights. Love this author and will read the next two of these.

Loved this book, was like ‘My Big Fat Greek Wedding‘, but Italian. Reading Adriana Trigiani‘s books are like a enjoying a warm blanket with a glass of red wine after a long day at work. Love her books ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Starting a very timely book from one of my favorite authors. Some dark chocolate seemed only appropriate to eat alongside reading tonight

I always love the glamorous covers on the Trigiani books. This one was about a young woman who wants to help her grandmother continue the custom bridal shoe #bizness that is in jeopardy of closing. #nofemmeber

It was a dark and stormy night, and I finally had 10 minuets to sit down and read.

Happy Valentines Day, fellow Littens! Phase 1 of unwrapping my #CupidGoesPostal package. It appears @MaleficentTheBookDragon has gone above and beyond! Phase 2 will happen after the morning school run, when I've had more coffee. @BookishMarginalia

So, I took my #CupidGoesPostal package to the UPS Store to mail, and I took pics before I sent it off, but for some reason they didn't show up on my phone😳 so I have to repost this old pic. I ended up with 3 books, 2 bookish gifts, and a valentine treat. It should arrive at its destination on 1/16. Hope my match enjoys! @BookishMarginalia

#somethingforsept #booksthatmademehungry: Very Valentine has great food descriptions and a few recipes from the story in the back. Savor the Moment and the Outlander series also have mouth watering food descriptions and Outlander inspired a great cookbook which I've posted before. Hatchet made me hungry because of his lack of food... For some reason reading about people who are hungry makes me want to eat. Anyone else feel that way?

This was my very first readathon #24in48. I had a blast but didn't make it😞 I can't wait to try again next time. I might be able to achieve since it will be winter and no outside distractions.

Smrloomis Wow, 16+ hours is really impressive! Congrats! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🎉🎉🎉 8y
Jlee745 Thank you😍😍😍 8y
