First, on the list, we have the widely popular Call Me By Your Name by André Aciman. This fiction novel tells the story of Elio Perlman.
In 1983, Elio is seventeen and spending his summer at his parent’s cliff-side mansion on the Italian Riviera.
Every summer, his parents bring in a doctoral student as a guest for six weeks, which requires Elio to give up his room so they can use it.
This year’s guest is the carefree and detached Oliver, who is very different from Elio, but the two find themselves attracted to each other nonetheless.
As the weeks progress, the bond between the two grows, but they are both unprepared for the consequences of their mutual attraction.
They continue in a cycle of obsession, passion, and fascination, testing the charged ground between them, and embark on a secret summer romance that will stay with them forever.

She cannot decide if she wants to stay where she is or move forward.
Set over the course of a single year, we follow the narrator as she lives in an unnamed city, and as she is well in the middle of her journey, she realizes that she has lost her way.
The city she calls home is full of parks, piazzas, museums, stores, and coffee bars, all of which she travels around when she doesn’t want to feel alone.
The reader spends a lot of time with her at a pool she regularly visits, and the train station that leads to her mother.
The narrator’s mother is keeping herself secluded after the passing of her husband.
During these trips to nearby locations, the narrator interacts with colleagues, casual acquaintances, and “him”- a man who both unsettles and consoles her.
Then one day, she finds herself at sea, and her experience there makes her perspective on everything suddenly change.

In the fictional story of The Star-Crossed Sisters of Tuscany, three second-born daughters set out to break a family curse that says they will never find love, and they go on an adventure across the Italian countryside to do so.
More than 200 years ago, Filomena Fontana cast a curse on her sister that made sure that no second-born daughter in the Fontana family would ever find lasting love.
Since that curse had been cast, every second-born daughter has had to deal with the fallout.
Some members of the family, such as second-born Emilia, a happily single baker, have claimed that it’s just a coincidence, but others, like her desperate-for-love cousin Lucy, swear the curse is real.
But when both girls are contacted by their great-aunt Poppy, they are left bewildered.
Aunt Poppy says that if they accompany her to Italy, she will meet the love of her life at the Ravello Cathedral on her eightieth birthday, and she will break the Fontana Second-Daughter Curse once and for all.
On a journey through rolling Tuscan fields, beautiful Amalfi Coast villages, and more, the three women of this cursed family are about to embark on a journey of a lifetime, and many things will happen along the way that they would never have anticipated could have been possible.

A young innkeeper looks over the waters of the Ligurian Sea and sees an apparition of a tall, thin woman, who is approaching him on a boat. He then learns that she is an actress and she is fading away.
The story then jumps to the modern day, and we are introduced to an elderly Italian man who turns up at the back lot of a movie studio- desperately searching for the mysterious woman he last saw decades earlier.
What follows is a dazzling string of events that spans over 50 years and many lives. The reader gets to peak into the lavish set of Cleopatra and even the shabby Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

During the summer, Lena is spending time in the beautiful land of Tuscany, but she has no interest in the fairy-tale landscape and fantastic Italian sunshine.
The only reason she has found herself in Italy is that her ailing mother’s wish was that she get to know her father, so it’s not exactly a holiday.

But when she is given a journal that her mother kept while she was in Italy, she begins to uncover a whole world of secret romances, hidden bakeries, and art.
This world inspires her to follow in her mother’s footsteps and get to the bottom of a secret that has been kept for far too long.
Along the way, she meets the ever-so-charming Ren, who helps her discover the answers to this secret… a secret that will change everything she knew about her mother, and even her estranged father.

The Camorra affects many cities and villages all along the Neapolitan coast, and it is why Campania has one of the highest crime rates in all of Europe.
