The Italian Cure is a fun, colorful story with even more colorful characters including the descriptions of Italy. I wish it was longer as this author is a good storyteller.
This was not exactly what I expected in terms of "touring" Italy, but it was a fun, east book to read. It is nice if you are stuck inside and just want something to read that doesn't require a lot of thought.
Thank you NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for a fair and honest review.
This was a sweet quick read. Definitely recommend if you're looking for something light and easy.
I definitely want to visit Italy now!
I didn’t realize that this was a shorter book when I began reading, but it was entertaining. The main character was funny and it actually would’ve been nice to have a longer book! Overall this was enjoyable.
Easy read! Colourful and enjoyed the descriptions of Italy! Not a lot to the story but pleasant read!
This is a very cute, quick read. I really enjoyed this novella despite it being quite predictable. I love Italy, and loved how much of it was included in this story. I also really appreciated that the main character didn’t spend a ton of time feeling sorry for herself. I enjoyed that she was more focused on enjoying the trip. I would have liked to have the ending be more developed, but overall it was a good read. It just ended really quickly.

I received this book for free in return for an honest review.
Very light, very short novelette. Predictable, but written with warmth. I liked that the heroine was less about my-boyfriend-dumped-me, and more about embracing new adventures and new beginnings. The author’s love for Italy shines through, and the overall effect is an uplifting quick read.
The Italian Cure by Melodie Campbell is a highly enjoyable novella that packs lots of heart and humour into precious few pages. Classified as fast fiction, I wasn't sure what to expect from this quick read, yet this has all the punch of a full length novel. A complete storyline, fully fleshed out characters, and lots of laugh out loud moments are all bundled into a small and rewarding package. I would love to read more from this author who was previously unknown to me. Thank you for this whirlwind trip through Italy!
Many thanks to NetGalley and Orca Book Publishers for this fun read.
