A humorous, quirky and touching story of love, laughter, second chances, taking risks, midlife turning points, and...lots of lasagna! Perfect women's fiction. Great summer read.

I only picked up this book (at a thrift store!) because of the title. I found the name intriguing. I didn't even read the back cover - I just HAD to read the book to understand the title.

I found the beginning to be a bit stilted, but once I got into it, I just could NOT put it down!!! I thought the characters were believable and the situations quite life-like. I laughed and cried right along with the main character. I did get upset with her near the end with the way she treated her new husband, but I made myself put myself in her shoes and then I realized that when things are happening, you tend to lash out at the ones who love you the most because you believe they will still be there for you when you are back to "normal."

I hope this author has written more books...if so, I will definitely read them!

this book cracked me up. If you come from an Italian/American family you have to read this.
