Let the Adventure Begin
Claire and Grace are two adult best friends that decide to take a trip to Italy together–no spouses or children are included.
Although they had both been there in the past, it was a long time ago, and disappointing. This time, they will be in charge what they do, where they stay, and the adventures they have.
Robin does a very good job of making it feel like you are there with the characters, and traveling right along with them. I feel like I have visited Italy, too, and explored all the places with Claire and Grace.
The two of them experience amazing things, and doing so, changes both of their lives. There is a strong thread of faith that runs through this–with one of them a believer, and the other not–and the effect it has on each one.
Reading this would be wonderful just for the feeling of having been on this trip, but including a great story in the mix, is a real cherry on top. The only thing I didn’t like was the promoting of wine drinking, but loved everything else about this tale. I am ready to pack my bag, go to Italy, and re-trace all their steps.
This is a great, five-star story that I highly recommend.
