Each has a nest egg that she can use, and they decide to embark on this adventure without sharing their exact plans with their husbands. Wilkins, inspires the other and soon they are making plans to rent the castle. Both women are lonely and are in marriages that are less than satisfactory.

Genre/Categories: Women’s Fiction, Classics, Romance, Italy Summary: Girls decide to take a girls’ trip to Italy….does this sound modern?….it happened in 1920!

The Enchanted April was originally published in the 1920s, and The Late Bloomers’ Club is contemporary. I read back-to-back light women’s fiction books (chick lit) in recent days, unusual and interesting for me since chick lit isn’t my preferred genre.
