Review by Jill Williamson
After eight years in Italy, A.J. is coming back to Indian Island, Idaho. She can’t wait to see her dog Sailor and her old friend Danny. Sailor acts as if nothing has changed, but Danny—oooh. He’s grown up into a six-foot-tall real-life cowboy. He seems interested in A.J., but she has a promise to keep that doesn’t include Danny. What’s a girl to do if she wants both?
Okay. So I loved Saving Sailor, and I LOVED Taking Tuscany. So when I saw that Heading Home was available, I had to buy it. It did not disappoint. I’m a closure-happy ending kind of girl, and though A.J. sure does have a tendency to make a mess of things, Renée Riva has a great way of putting it all back together. A.J.’s Italian/Greek family is hysterical. This book was funny, heartwarming, and delightful. These three books were a fabulous coming-of-age story that takes place in the 1960’s and 1970’s. I highly recommend them.
