I found this really readable from page 1, though it is a kind of fantastical story (meant in a positive way). I can’t think it could ever happen, yet there was enough realism to keep me captivated, with an ending that doesn’t disappoint. I have been to the lighthouse in Javea, which I imagine to be the lighthouse of the book, so that felt really quaint and helped me imagine the setting. A very unusual storyline – recommended!
