My Review
I am always really excited to hear that Jules Wake is releasing a new book and this was a wonderful book to jump into.
We meet Ettie as her life in London implodes and she moves back in with her Mum & Grandad and tries to get a job at a local hotel that is just preparing to reopen. Whilst walking to the hotel she stumbles across an open water lake that she remembers from childhood and a wonderful community who love to cold water swim.
I love the back story that runs alongside this of how Ettie was taught to swim by her Grandad and how these experiences are what evoked her love of swimming and prompted her to become a qualified lifeguard when she was younger.
A wonderful story, that I thoroughly enjoyed from beginning to end.
Book Blurb
