When in Rome...
When in Rome... | Gemma Townley
3 posts | 12 read | 2 to read
When in Rome, do as Audrey Hepburn would do. Failing that, run off with your ex-boyfriend, carry suspicious packages through customs, and lie to the person who loves you. . . . Georgie Beauchamp is totally happy and in love with her wonderful, dependable boyfriend, David. So why does she always daydream about running into her gorgeous ex-boyfriend Mike? It cant mean shes still in love with himespecially since the cad dumped her so horribly. As luck would have it, when Georgies daydream actually comes true, she is dressed in unglamorous sweats and carrying a curtain rod down the street, while Mike is driving an expensive sports car and looking better than Brad Pitt at the Oscars. She longs to have the glamorous life Mike can offerand starts to think that he might want her back in his arms. But when he invites her for a weekend in Rome, Georgie is torn. David has always said hed take her there for the romantic getaway of a lifetime, but his work keeps him totally tied up. So she must choose: David, all comfort and reliability, or Mike, all flirtation and butterfly-stomachs. The decision isnt too hard to make, and faster than she can say Vespa, shes off to Rome with Mike, full of plans to frolic on the Spanish Steps and sip wine in intimate trattorias. But when David shows up unexpectedly, this roman holiday gets a hell of a lot more complicated. . . . From the Trade Paperback edition.

bookandcat @xxjenadanxx I adore it! I also love listening to the Babysitter's Club Club podcast (two Brooklyn dudes have been reading and analyzing the books, it's a comedy podcast) 5y
myellenbee ah Animorphs! Haven't thought about those in a long time. I discovered them when my kids read them. They were really good.

We arrived in Rome yesterday. I have only made it to a couple bookstores here so far (Anglo-American and la Feltrinelli - see bookmarks), but I picked up these great totes in London and Paris. 😍 My favorite bookstore so far was Hatchards in London. I bought a book there too, but I had to donate it to the hotel library before we left because our luggage was almost overweight. 🤓📖📚 #booknerdproblems #bookstore #EuropeanBookstores #jpeurope
