“It is a great book for those who like romance and for those who like to follow the maturing of the characters. The author easily envolves us in the story, and she has a light and cosy writing.”– Bárbara for the blog “Myself Here”.
“I could identify a lot with the protagonist. The main point of the book is not the romance, in my opinion, but instead all the conflict she goes through to try to find herself and decide what to do with her future. I believe everyone that has been through similar situations will love the book.” – Carol Mendes, from the blog “Virando Amor”.
“The book is about love, friendship and Italy. A friendship that became love. A love that became friendship. A friendship that was shattered. New friendships that were created… I loved all the pages and Paula’s writing style. It is a light and simple writing, but very captivating! I really felt like I was in Italy – even though I’ve never visited the country! And, of course, the book is a little cliché, yes, but it overflows with sweetness in every page turned.” – Fabiana, from the blog “P.S. Amo Leitura”.
“The writing of this author is very delightful. You can’t stop reading at all. I am not the biggest fan of romances and I got so surprised with this books that it even got into my favorites! ‘The Letters of Love’ is one of the best romances I have ever read. Read it. Seriously.” – Thalita Lima, from the literary Instagram “Colorindo Devaneios”.
