This is book number 3 in the Italian Saga series.
Swoon, laugh, and cry with this Italian atypical romance
Italy, the 90s. When Alex takes an interest in bookish tomboy Leda, the young teen finds herself torn between her handsome suitor and her long-term feelings for childhood friend Nico, who's dark, unreliable, and utterly ignores her. Leda finds her way through puberty, navigating her parents' separation, starting high school, and pursuing her dream to win the Italian junior volleyball championship. As always, Amman's unique mix of humor and empathy makes it impossible to stop reading, as she skillfully intertwines the stories of many teens struggling with loneliness, angst and, of course love. Her vivid descriptions of Cinque Terre, Sardinia, and the Alps can only add to the irresistible charm of this intriguing romance.
