The American Lady (Glasbläser-Saga #2) 
While Marie finds herself increasingly swept up in New York City’s bohemian social scene—catching the eye of a handsome young Italian in the process—Wanda explores a past she never knew in the village of her mother’s youth—and begins to build a life that she never expected.
A sweeping tale that takes readers from the small town of Lauscha to the skyscrapers of New York and the sun-kissed coast of Italy, The American Lady is a tribute to the enduring power of family and what we’ll do in the name of love.
As exciting as book #1The 2nd book in this trilogy was just as exciting as the first. I ant wait to read book #3,
I did not enjoy it as much as the first one.

I read The Glassblower. I didn't love it but I enjoyed reading about the glass blowing. I decided to get the second book to see what happened next. I stopped reading it. I really didn't care anymore what happened. I realized that there was not 1 character in the book that I liked. The women in this story are not strong and smart. To me they are selfish and not very nice to each other. The only one with the slightest redeeming quality is the oldest sister, Johanna. I don't know who I hated most

Both the Glassblower and the American Lady were mediocre books. They just missed the Mark of being truly interesting. I enjoy generational books, especially of simply people who struggle through life to become some thing. That is what held my interest in these books. The Steinmann sisters (Johanna, Ruth and Marie) struggle to build their father's glassblowing business after he dies (book 1). In book two we see Johanna married and carrying on with the business, Ruth builds a well to do life inAs exciting as book #1The 2nd book in this trilogy was just as exciting as the first. I ant wait to read book #3,
