Pennie Picks Kiss Carlo

Pennie Clark Ianniciello, Costco's book buyer, has chosen Kiss Carlo: A Novel by Adriana Trigiani (Harper, $27.99, 9780062319227) as her pick of the month for July. In Costco Connection, which goes to many of the warehouse club's members, she wrote:

"I look forward to every new book by Adriana Trigiani. She is not only delightful in person, but her books are a joy to read. That includes her latest novel, Kiss Carlo, this month's book buyer's pick.

"The sweeping multigenerational story effortlessly transports readers from Italy to the streets of South Philly to New York City, while the characters explore the ties that bind, tradition, wanting more from life, Shakespeare and much more. As they examine what they want for themselves, they also celebrate love, hope and family.

"Best of all? Trigiani tells this story with her trademark wit and joie de vivre."
