Publisher Description

"No one ever reads just one of Trigiani’s wonderfully quirky tales. Once you pick up the first, you are hooked.” —BookPage New York Times bestselling author Adriana Trigiani shares a treasure trove of insight and guidance from her two grandmothers: time-tested, common sense advice on the most important aspects of a woman’s life, from childhood to the golden years. Seamlessly blending anecdote with life lesson, Don’t Sing at the Table tells the two vibrant women’s real-life stories—how they fell in love, nurtured their marriages, balanced raising children with being savvy businesswomen, and reinvented themselves with each new decade. For fans of Big Stone Gap, Very Valentine, Lucia, Lucia, and Rococo, this loving memoir is the Trigiani family recipe for chicken soup for the soul

    " Adriana Trigiani writes interestingly about her relationships with both her grandmothers. I found it of interest since much of the time period corresponded with my own life and my grandmothers, one a child immigrant and one a first-generation. "

    " I found this book hard to get into. The book starts with sequential life events of her grandmothers, which frankly isn't really that interesting. Overall it is a good book to read on and off but I never really found a solid story line. "
