After the recent death of her father, followed quickly by the ending of a relationship, Penny needs some time to take a step back and focus on herself. Sharing a love of the Durrells with her father, she decides to visit Corfu with the hope of feeling closer to him and visiting the places she'd read about in the Durrell's work.
This is a story of heartache, friendship and love as Penny finds herself learning so much about herself and the parts of herself that she didn't realise she had hidden away. I really enjoyed the writing with well paced chapters helping to draw me in and leave me wanting more. I really enjoyed the character development of both Penny and the minor characters. I did find the ending a little bit rushed and felt that it could do with another few pages to tie off. It would have been nice to get an ending on some of the more minor characters and a bit more information on the ending for Penny.
