Description
Josephine Alibrandi navigates the complexities of her final year at a strict Catholic high school, caught between the traditional Italian values of her grandmother, her mother's pragmatic guidance, and the bewildering world of boys. As she grapples with burgeoning romance and the mysteries of her family's past, Josephine embarks on a journey of self-discovery. This poignant and humorous coming-of-age story explores themes of identity, family heritage, and the courage it takes to forge one's own path.
