About this item
No one does love and guilt like mothers and daughters - especially when they're Italian. Lisa Scottoline and Francesca Serritella are back with another collection of warm and witty stories. Romantic relationships-or the lack thereof-are a common topic, along with aging, pets, family relationships, and the challenges of being a modern woman. Listening to this book is like catching up with your funniest friend over a long lunch; women of all ages will relate. The authors' narration is unpolished but enhances the gossipy subject matter. Listeners can count on an ab-toning laugh session, a silly giggle, a sympathetic sigh, and a lump in the throat as life's moments are rehashed through the keen eyes and wit of this lovable mother-daughter duo.
