This week on Your New Jersey, host Lisa Marie Falbo heads down the Shore to Lake Como for a very special episode. She sits down with New York Times bestselling author Adriana Trigiani at her book launch to hear the inspiration behind her latest novel, The View from Lake Como, which blends the charm of the Jersey Shore with the romance of Northern Italy. Mayor Kevin G. Higgins and Councilwoman Hawley Scull share their perspective on the beauty and community of Lake Como, the perfect backdrop for Adriana’s story. Plus, we catch up with Laura Jones, New Jersey’s leading political reporter and host of NJ Politics with Laura Jones, who just moderated the state’s first 2025 gubernatorial debate between Mikie Sherrill and Jack Ciattarelli — a five-hour town hall style broadcast produced by On New Jersey, NJ Globe, and Rider University.
