Ljubav nije za mene

Ljubav nije za mene

Federica Bosco

A witty chick-lit novel comes to the aid of thirty-year-old Monika, who heads to Scotland to start a new life, only to soon realize that true love isn't simple.

In the entertaining and touching novel Love Isn't for Me (original title: L’amore non fa per me) by popular Italian author Federica Bosco, we follow Monica, an irresistible and slightly clumsy thirty-year-old. It seems her greatest dreams have finally come true: Monica is packing her bags and heading to magical yet chilly Scotland, where her "Prince Charming" awaits. Alongside a new romance and a life shared with her partner, the publication of her first book and the start of an exciting career are also on the horizon.

However, this idyllic picture soon collides with harsh reality. Confronting a completely new culture, the challenges of living together, and her partner's traditionally reserved and demanding social circle leads to a host of comic and stressful situations. With her parents and those around her often making things difficult, Monica begins to wonder if dreams of a "happily ever after" are truly easy to achieve.

With her signature witty style, irony, and sharp humor, the author delivers a story about growing up, finding one's identity, and shattering romantic myths. It is a spirited read about surviving one's own expectations and finding balance when it seems like everything is going wrong.
