Wish You Were Here by Jodi Picoult
4.0

Wish you were here is such an emotional read. While Covid plays a huge part in the book, it's worth reading it because it gives so much of the true nuances of life in these times.

So many beautiful setting descriptions for the Galápagos Islands and such a heartbreaking story overall. It takes about Diana and Finn, a beautiful couple that have to go through so much while in lockdown and in the frontline of it all. Survival, loneliness, grief and, more than anything, human experiences and emotionalism.

It might be hard for some to read it but it's really with the time. The first half of the story is set in Galapagos and I could really see why the author is such a beloved storyteller.

Very grateful to the publisher for my review copy through NetGalley
