"If you don't put that ring on this minute, I'm going to take it back," Annie whispered in my ear. She leaned back, looking at me, her hands still on my shoulders, her eyes shining softly at me and snow falling, melting, on her nose. "Buon Natale," she whispered, "amore mio."
"Merry Christmas, my love," I answered.
From the moment Liza Winthrop meets Annie Kenyon at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, she knows there is something special between them. But Liza never knew falling in love could be so wonderful . . . or so confusing.
"No single work has done more for young adult LGBT fiction than this classic about two teenage girls who fall in love." —School Library Journal

      Listeners will be drawn in as Liza Winthrop recalls her blossoming relationship with Annie Kenyon. After meeting at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the two teenagers awkwardly navigate their growing romantic feelings for each other. Actress Rebecca Lowman's graceful narration is perfect for this groundbreaking lesbian teen novel, first published in 1982. Her pacing is slow and deliberate, allowing listeners to fully absorb Liza's mixed emotions. Lowman varies her intonation slightly between the two girls, while seamlessly incorporating the Sicilian accent of Annie's family. This love story is tame by today's standards, yet teens will find much to appreciate in this fine production, which also includes an interview with the author. L.A.C.
