“Looking for the Durrells” is the debut novel from Melanie Hewitt.
After an awful year that saw the death of her father and a broken engagement, Penny decides to travel to Corfu to spend a month there, fulfilling a childhood dream of searching for and exploring the places written about by the Durrells.
Once she arrives, she is drawn into the lives of Tess, Spiro and Theo, and finds herself falling in love with Dimitris, who runs sight seeing trips from his boat.
This book is a beautiful, easy summer read, perfect for sitting in the garden and dreaming of Greek islands.
The descriptions of Corfu, somewhere I’ve never been (but would love to now!) are beautifully detailed and I was able to imagine myself there with Penny.
The cover is gorgeous too, altogether a fantastic read, one I would recommend.
Many thanks to Readers First and the publisher for allowing me to read an advance copy of this book.
