I enjoyed this book. It didn't blow me away, but it wasn't terrible, just good. I tend struggle with 1st person so I got the audiobook version and thoroughly enjoyed listening to it. Ell Potter reads it so well and gives it a lot of character. It really brought it all to life for me.

It has a subtle sunny/grumpy romance which I enjoyed seeing develop, along with the growing friendships with the locals. I did feel like the story was a bit all over the place, feeling like I'd skipped a chapter at one point, so there was a lot of going back a page or two to catch up with where I was. But I suppose that's the point of a journal style book?

NetGalley have kindly sent me a copy of the sequel and I'm already excited to get stuck in!
