2.0 out of 5 stars
The story is plain with very little excitement,
By "jamesjiao" (Christchurch, New Zealand) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Siena Summer (Paperback)
After reading Siena Summer by Teresa Crane, I personally would not want read it the second time. The story started with some flair of brilliance and uniqueness. Nonetheless, it did not convey enough plot to grab readers' attention especially during the middle section of the story. It was mostly plain storytelling with very little climax and excitement and the ending was largely expectable. It was a reasonably good love story, but it could have used more and better metaphors to describe certain situations, which, I personally think, are an important part of a love story. The story, though lethargic in some sense, had described an extract of the Italian culture vividly and it was an enjoyable experience to read about another culture with a plot. If you are seeking a brilliant love story, this is not the one to purchase. However, if you are seeking experience of another culture, you have a good book right here. == James ==
