This book is one of the best books I have read in the lgbt genre. It’s a mind thriller set in the US and Italy at a nunnery. There is twists and turns when you least expect it. The only reason why I gave it four stars is because the main character can be quite problematic and annoying at times and the author never goes into detail with certain scenes (;)) other than that I would recommend it!

Bridget and Isabella are two young women from New England playing at being grown ups at an Academy in 1958 in Italy. The pair are balancing friendships and feelings in a time when nice girls are expected to get married and become obedient wives. Bridget aspires to be Isabella's best friend, and tries a little hard to be loved. Isabella, meanwhile, has feelings for her secret fiance, and A N Other to consider. This is a fun, fairly light read.
