Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Escape this winter with the heart-warming and uplifting new novel from the number one best-selling author Giovanna Fletcher.

In the darkness, we all need a little light....

After Mike loses Pia, his partner of 17 years, their best friends Vicky and Zaza try to help pick up the pieces.

But though Pia's gone, she left a plan. A list of loving instructions to help Mike and her friends come to terms with their loss.

And they're each going to need it....

Just-engaged Zaza fears committing any further.

Exhausted mother and wife Vicky has lost sight of herself.

While Mike just feels all the colour has gone from his life.

When the list sends them trekking to Peru, where high mountains and sweltering rainforests push them to the brink, all they have to guide them is their faith in Pia and in themselves.

But will they learn that anything is possible when you're walking on sunshine?

SO much love for this!

What an absolute pleasure it was listening to this. I literally listened to it in 2 days.

Loved the friendship between all 3 of the main characters.

Especially loved knowing where they were at 5 years down the line.

Would highly highly recommend without a shadow of a doubt!

lovely listen

a really easy, lovely listen. such a heartwarming story and relatable characters. I did get a little bored towards the middle, but I powered through and it got better. I would recommend if your looking for something quite light, yet with a decent plot.

Left me Walking on Sunshine!

What a fantastic book. A totally relatable story without having to go on a trek. I listened on my walk to and from work and found tears rolling down my face as I walked in parts but well worth looking a little silly.

Emotional and warm

I am a huge fan of Giovanna Fletcher's books but felt this one was a little different. Giovanna's style is usually rom-com and sweet whereas I felt this one has a bit more of a message to it. I loved the themes throughout for the three different characters, including grief, the struggles of motherhood and self doubt, and all of their story arches. (Also loved the little nods not just to her other books but also to Izzi Judd at the end!)
Performance wise, the story is narrated well, Elliot Cowan's voice is dreamy and delicious and Giovanna and Pippa act the story convincingly. I would recommend!
