I’m sharing this link to the Sons of Italy blog today because I love their advice: Read a novel about Italy as part of your travel preparations!! And if you aren’t planning a trip to Italy, a novel can transport you there for a few hours. They have some great suggestions, some I’m adding to my own “to be read” list.

Can you add something you’ve read to their list? Please comment!
