Could not put it down
I started Beneath the Olive Sky on a Sunday afternoon and finished it the same night. Maya Costa writes with such warmth that the characters felt like old friends by the final chapter.

The prose is lyrical without ever feeling heavy. A perfect travel read and one I have already passed on to my sister.

Gently paced in the middle, but the ending more than made up for it. The sense of place is wonderful and I could picture every scene.

We chose Beneath the Olive Sky for our book club and it sparked our best discussion of the year. Arrived beautifully wrapped too.
