The Patron Saint of Second Chances

 a debut novel by Christine Simon

—

on my weekday commutes to school

i listen to quite a few books

and this

was the first one in a long time

that had me laughing out loud while driving

while i may have looked a bit crazy

 it was so worth it for the belly laughs

all from this book

set in a small italian village

filled with larger than life, passionate, eccentric characters

who you will absolutely fall in love with

a community who finds a way

where no path is clear

using the power of optimism, love, and fate

(along with a few pleas to obscure patron saints)

to overcome all obstacles.

you simply will not want this beautiful story to end.

 bella.

  27. If it’s funny, I’m all in. Read all of Janet Evanovich and Mary Marks 9 book series. Hysterical. WE need more laughter right now. Maybe always. I’ll look for it and I’m another one that can’t listen to anything while driving. Need every brain cell to get there.
