I took this book from the holiday bookbox. Now it is waiting to be read.
Passenderweise war ich im Urlaub, als ich dieses Buch gelesen habe. Genau richtig für den Urlaub, nette Charaktere, warmherzige Geschichte und gar nicht mal so kitschig, wie man vom Klappentext und vom Bild meinen würde...
Das Buch sieht übrigens anders aus als auf dem Bild oben, vielleicht setze ich mal ein Foto ein!
