“I can’t believe it took me so long to find this delightful book, which like “A Year in Provence” provides pleasurable little slices one can dive into repeated summers and still savor.”

“This is my favorite book of all time. I try to read it every summer. Tove writes funny, sad, poignant, to-the-point stories of a granddaughter and grandmother spending their days together on a remote island in the Gulf of Finland.”

“This is the essence of long summer days with nothing to do. A woman and her young granddaughter pass a season at their summer house on a small Finnish island. They get up to some nonsense. They upset each other. They make up. They cook. The days go by. Yours will too, no matter what you do. I love it every time.”
