What an awesome book! This book tells the story of the Rosati family who live in Tuscany. It alternates back & forth between 1944 & 1955. During WWII, the Rosatis were seen by the local villagers as Nazi sympathizers & many in their village grew to despise them. Then it jumps ahead to '55 as what remains of the family is stalked by a merciless murder who slits the family members throats & the extracts their hearts. All the characters' lives weave together in strange ways. This book will hook you from start to finish.

This was the book I gave out for World Book Night 2014. I had not read it prior to giving it, but I had heard it was good.
It wasn't exactly good, but it wasn't awful either. Honestly nothing much happened. It simply tell the story of the Andreas family. They admittedly don't have a "typical" family, but they deal with very typical family issues... cancer, dishonesty, child-parent dynamics, etc. But unlike typical families serious conversations (& even not so serious ones) were dealt with in Shakespeare quotes.

Hit's you in the heart
I loved Coco and i've now watched this movie bout 20 times since it came out. Its an amazingly well written movie accompanied by the always amazing Pixar animation that never seems to let me down. The story hits home with its message about the importance of family and keeping memories of those we loved alive in our minds and hearts. if you've ever lost a close family member or friend, it will tug at your heart strings.
