What a wonderful story to escape in.
I loved the style of the writing and had many a chuckle. The author has a knack of hitting the nail on the head regarding relationships and everyday life.
The story about Violet was lovely and I learnt a lot about the making of Gin which at the moment seems to be the "in" drink. (They are even making it somewhere in the area where I live and bottles for sale are turning up at our local shows) so the book is very up to date on local activities.
I soon thought, I know where this seaside town really is with its black swans and its famous railway line with the sea wall that runs alongside it.
Dawlish in Devon.
We often visit for the day as we love it so as we do the railway trip from Exeter.
So this story brought back many happy memories, make me chuckle, increased my knowledge and gave me a great escape from everyday life.
What more could I ask for ....do try it.
