Welcome to Litsy!

I remember borrowing this book from the library but I never had the chance to read it. I‘d forgotten all about it until this prompt came up!

Read in 2024. There‘s a lot going on in this story: parent abandonment, drug abuse/DV/emotional abuse, jealousy. The story spans over many years. It was a decent story. I really liked Benjamin‘s research that she did about the history of surfing (which I found more interesting & found more books to read).

It has to be said, Sophie Kinsella is one of my favourite authors of all time when I need a palate Sophie writes characters that you instantly bond with and form a genuine affection for, which is truly a gift to be able to do in every book she writes. I loved the concept of people struggling with burnout going to their favourite childhood happy places to seek solace- a delightful read ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Sasha takes a break away from work and life in London. She returns to the seaside resort she loved as a child, determined to reset her batteries and find peace.
Only the hotel is now off season and crumbling to pieces. She has to share the beach and hotel with a grumpy man who has his own issues to deal with.
I felt the plot was quite static and not a lot happened. The characters were eccentric and the hotel couldn‘t function in real life. 3🌟

I love this story and grew up with it. It‘s a very inspiration plot about a girl who was tragically attacked by a shark when she was surfing. The story is about how she overcomes and still peruses her passion of surfing.

Weekend reading. I‘ve been a big fan of Sophie Kinsella so I‘m hoping this one is just as good as her other books. 📚💕

This is the only one I could think of. Curious to see what my fellow Littens come up with.

Took a looking time to get through this but I loved the cast of characters.
