Review: Brava, Valentine

I had enjoyed the first book in this series, Very Valentine & was looking forward to this second one in the series (why is it so difficult to find stand-along books these days?).

The characters are still enjoyable (though whinier than I remember) & Trigiani still has a wonderfully descriptive voice- sometimes, a little too much. She can go on & on sometimes, long after my attention span has fizzled out.

Over all, a good sequel though it ends rather abruptly. This book, like it's predecessor is at its best when the entire Angelini/Roncalli clan is together in action- Valentine may be the center of the story, but they are the heart of it.
