paddlefoot55 's review for:

Leaving Ocean Road by Esther Campion
4.0


Copy received from Hachette Australia for an honest review

Leaving Ocean Road is the light, sweet debut novel from Ms Campion, and is one that I thoroughly enjoyed.

It is a beautiful story of old love, love lost and love rekindled.

Ellen's story is beautiful, and tragic, and heartbreaking - but also full of love and hope.

Me heart broke with her, my heart soared with her, as she finds a way to move on after tragedy strikes her family.

What i really liked about this story though, was that it wasn't just all rainbows and butterflies, and wasn't just centred on the romance of it all. There were so many different kinds of relationships touched on in this story, and all felt real.

Leaving Ocean Road is a light and fluffy read, something fans of Maeve Binchy would adore. The perfect book for an afternoon on the couch with a cup of tea.

I can't wait to see what Ms Campion brings us in the future.
