Book Review: She Seduced Me: A Love Affair with Rome by Mark Tedesco

She Seduced me: A Love Affair with Rome by Mark Tedesco
Had gotten a few links to youtube videos about this book and it won me over. Might've been just the authors voice himself but he paints a Van Gogh for me with words he uses.
Was memorizing with the author himself narrating, stopping just for a few seconds at parts you could reflect on before he continued. Captured my attention i had to listen several times. Knew I really wanted to read more.
Lights up the whole place as if I am there. Very magical, mystical, captivating, tears in my eyes when I knew I was at the end...you can see/hear the smile on his face with words as he describes his most treasured scenes.

Book starts out with the author's bio, list of chapters and short intro about Rome and how it affected the author.
The characters, he brings to life as if they are doing their dancing in front of you. Love people watching and guessing what their jobs are or what country they are from.
So much history in this book.  Love hearing of the underground sanctuaries and never knew they existed there. Shops are very colorful with the products they sell.
Love how the interviews are done and the groups they are with at the time. So much history is also included and explained how it plays a part in the chapter.
I'd like the author to answer the same questions, just so you'd get a more detailed description of his feelings and dreams.
Food, oh just YUM!  Love that the chapters are so short but they are packed with so much you might want to read them a few times over.
Especially love getting lost and the adventures and things that are found.
Funny things like hidden gems are included also, like cowboy hats! Find a bunch more for yourself, you'll feel as if you hit the jackpot of diamonds, rubies, pearls and sapphires.
Conclusion about Rome, acknowledgements and bibliography end this book.
Received this review copy from the publisher and this is my honest opinion.
