Title: Self-absorbed and boring
Product review: I never abandon a book before finishing it, so I continued slogging through this arrogant and whiny pile of words until finally it ended. I'm not sure why the subtitle is "the sweet life" because very little about this book is sweet. The author seems self-absorbed to the point of being self-obsessed, waxing poetic in between complaining about the woes of having a second home. I wanted to enjoy a luscious and reflective journey through Italy, but instead felt like another unwanted houseguest of Ms. Mayes. What a bummer.
