Shirley The Reader 5.0 out of 5 stars She'll cheer you out of any doldrums Reviewed in Australia on 16 August Verified Purchase Twead's books are just plain fun. Couldn't put any of them down. She paints her characters so vividly, I feel they are now my own close friends. I've read all of her books and beg her sincerely to write yet another one. I'll be waiting! Deb5206 5.0 out of 5 stars Another great book from Beeky! Reviewed in Australia on 28 August Verified Purchase You've done it again Beeky, another of your books I loved. Taking me back to El Hoyo, meeting old friends in the village, I feel I know every one of them especially you and Joe. If you want a book that is funny and will take you to another place that is quirky and friendly then read this. Victorias books are so easy to read, you just fly through the pages and can't put it down but unfortunately leaves me feeling a bit sad that I have reached the end. Kate 'griz' Pill 5.0 out of 5 stars Do yourself a favour - read this book. Reviewed in Australia on 9 August Verified Purchase What can I say! Victoria does not disappoint! I read her first three memoirs over the summer and had been eagerly awaiting this one. It was wonderful being immersed once again in the day to day life of El Hoyo, Spain. Victoria's style is polished, effectively capturing the different personalities that inhabit El Hoyo. I frequently found myself laughing out loud, eyes widening in surprise, celebrating and, shedding tears. Victoria has a way with words that makes me want to re-read her books and, eagerly await the next one - there has to be a next one.
