Looking for Alibrandi
of Melina Marchetta (Goodreads Author)
Description
For as long as Josephine Alibrandi can remember, itâs just been her, her mom, and her grandmother. Now itâs her final year at a wealthy Catholic high school. The nuns couldnât be any stricterâbut that doesnât seem to stop all kinds of men from coming into her life.Caught between the old-world values of her Italian grandmother, the nononsense wisdom of her mom, and the boys who continue to mystify her, Josephine is on the ride of her life. This will be the year she falls in love, the year she discovers the secrets of her familyâs pastâand the year she sets herself free.Told with unmatched depth and humor, this novelâwhich swept the pool of Australian literary awards and became a major motion pictureâis one to laugh through and cry with, to cherish and remember.
