I've just finished Washington Square, and with impeccable timing your review floated across my reviews page - I felt exactly the same way about it! Thank you for making me cackle in agreement.
I was also going to say, how odd that most of our shared books relate to medieval and Renaissance Italy - but now I see you were born and raised in 13th century Florence, so I suppose it's not at all surprising.
A great collection (and not only because we share 81 works...) !
You have exceedingly good taste in reading material!
