Suddenly Gabi's summer in Italy is much, much more interesting. And thus she comes to be rescued by the knight-prince Marcello Falassi, who takes her back to his father's castle-a castle Gabi has seen in ruins in another life. And worse yet, in the middle of a fierce battle between knights of two opposing forces. until Gabi places her hand atop a handprint in an ancient tomb and finds herself in fourteenth-century Italy. In Book One of the River of Time series, Gabi and Lia are stuck among the rubble of medieval castles in rural Tuscany on yet another hot, boring, and dusty archeological site. Most American teenagers want a vacation in Italy, but the Bentarrini sisters have spent every summer of their lives with their parents, famed Etruscan scholars, among the romantic hills. and leaving means forfeiting what she's come to know-and love itself. Remaining means giving up all she's known and loved. I would most definitely recommend this to anyone.Gabriella has never spent a summer in Italy like this one. In Book One, American teenager Gabi Betarrini accidently finds herself in sixteenth-century Italy. The way that Bergren describes the characters, the setting, and every other minuscule detail makes you just drawn in! I am a young person myself, and I read for a living, but before this book, I was never interested in the genre she uses. Find this book at Lisa Tawn Bergren's new YA series, River of Time, is romantic, historical fiction in which the plucky heroine doesn't have to fear a vampire's bite but must still fight for her life. It was a different idea of a book that I wouldn't have expected it to be by the cover. (I like getting books because they look pretty on bookshelves xD.) I read the Prologue of Waterfall and was surprisingly interested. I bought it for the good price and the intriguing cover, and never really expected to en.

Exceptionally written, the photo on the front of it fits Gabi perfectly, everything about it is just exceptional.

I grew up with Jim Dale, and so maybe im.

Review 2: This book was truly exceptional. She makes Lia sound like a ditzy airhead, and Gabi sound like a bratty teen. Certainly, I wish the focus had been a bit more on their relationship & a little less on the political tensions of the time, but overall, it was a quick & fun read. The elements I liked about this one were the realism of the main character, Gabriella whose thoughts, I feel, very accurately represent those of a teenage girl thrust into this situation the subtle inclusion of faith in God in a way that was not overbearing and the purity of the relationship between Marcello & Gabriella. Review 1: I do love a good time travel novel.
