However, she’s there for a working project, so she doesn’t get to experience the island as much as I would if I’d ever go there. And thanks to the main character Liv, you get to experience Santorini through her. The book really gives off a Greece vibes (I can vouch for that). But hey – it’s worth it, from what I’m reading in Love & Olives. Mostly because it’s probably one of the most expensive islands of Greece. I’ve been to Greece a couple of times, but never visited the island of Santorini.
It might not totally surprise you, but after reading Love & Olives, all I wanted to do was hop on a plane and fly to Santorini. Because as Liv slowly begins to discover, her father may not have invited her to Greece for Atlantis, but for something much more important.‘ I’m off to Santorini – bye But not everything on the Greek island is as perfect as it seems. And yet Liv doesn’t want their past to get in the way of a possible reconciliation.Īnd that means diving into all that Santorini has to offer – the beautiful sunsets, the turquoise water, the hidden caves, and the delicious cuisine.
There are so many questions, so many emotions that flood to the surface after seeing her father for the first time in years. So when Liv suddenly receives a postcard from her father explaining that National Geographic is funding a documentary about his theories on Atlantis and will she fly out to Greece and help? Liv agrees (mostly due to her mom’s insistence).īut when she arrives to gorgeous Santorini, things are a little awkward.
What Liv does remember, though, is their shared love for Greek myths and the lost city of Atlantis. ‘Liv Varanakis doesn’t have a lot of fond memories of her father, which makes sense he fled to Greece when she was only eight. Release Date: November 10th, 2020 (although it was only available in March here) Publisher: Simon & Schuster (Export version) In March I read Love & Olives as a buddy read with Lynn from and Monisha from We both read other books by Welch ( Love & Gelato and Love & Luck) and were super excited to finally get our hands on a copy of this super cute book.
