Adriana Trigiani on the Today Show
Yesterday on the Today Show, Adriana Trigiani --- who will be guest blogging for us soon --- talked about her new novel, Very Valentine, which is the first in a trilogy. She discussed her trip to Italy to conduct research for the book and who she took with her as a traveling companion.
After host Hoda Kotb commented on how the opening lines of Adriana's novels tend to be attention-getting and read the first three sentences of Very Valentine --- "I'm not the pretty sister. I'm not the smart sister either. I am the funny one." --- Adriana discussed why she wanted her story to follow a female character from the ages of 33 through 40. She also revealed which actress has been cast to play the part of Ave Maria Mulligan in the big-screen version of Big Stone Gap.

Enjoyed watching the Today Show launch. A very interesting interview of Adriana Trigiani who is a delightfully funny lady. Looking forward to reading the book VERY VALENTINE and seeing the future movie BIG STONE GAP.

It was great seeing and hearing the interview with
Adriana Trigiani on The Today Show and I especially
enjoyed hearing about her cousin Valentine. What
a character! Little did she know that her cousin, Adri
would name a novel after her - after ten years.
