About Pageturner Novels

Pageturner Novels publishes graded Italian novels for adult English speakers. Every book is a story first: a secret, a clock running, a reason to read the next chapter.

Every chapter is checked against the word, sentence-length and grammar limits of its level with our own tools, and carries in-text explanations, a glossary, a summary and comprehension questions.
