What did you think about My Brilliant Friend? Or all of the Neopolitan novels? I just finished the first and had mixed feelings about it. Curious about your take!

Wow – apartments in a library! With a bit of fixing-up those could be gorgeous places to live. It sounds like something out of a story : )
