I enjoyed this book, it really brought the relationships of the characters to life and had you rooting for them all! However, the plot was pretty easy to predict and some of the characters inner monologues were a bit repetitive.
It does deal with some serious themes so not exactly a light read, but a good book to read on holiday or if you want to imagine yourself living on a beautiful remote island!

Slightly predictable but endearing and heartwarming all the same. The character development was far more important than the plot. Excellent holiday read. A story about community and friendship. The first book that ive read in a long time that I haven't been able to put down.
