Oh my days, this book is a joyful, sunny hug! I really didn't want it to end 🌞
Through her writing Francesca Segal has created her happy place, something she was craving for in a book but couldn't find.
Welcome to Glorious Tuga is set on the fictional Caribbean island Tuga de Oro, this small, close-knit, and quirky community is nurturing and supportive, though far from perfect! Expect conservation, beautiful scenery, romance, plenty of giggles and a good sprinkling of secrets.
Newly arrived Charlotte, a young vet from England, is on a mission to rescue a species and find herself. Native Dan, returns as a qualified doctor, to take over and modernise his uncle’s 30 year old practice. Their journeys are heartwarming and full of unexpected twists.
Welcome To Glorious Tuga is gorgeously written with vivid characters and stunning island descriptions, this story is alive with laughs and serious topics. Part of a trilogy, I’m already missing the characters, it makes my heart swell just to think of it. I can’t wait for the next installment!
I read this at part of a readalong, thanks to Tandemcollectiveuk, vintagebooks and chattobooks for the gorgeous physical copy @NetGalley for the digital copy.
