I’ve officially added Positano and the Path to the Gods to my bucket list. I got this one in my @bookofthemonth box this summer, and it’s definitely a fun read if you want to “explore” a bit. I can’t say I fell in love with this story, but I did enjoy it. The struggles of the main character- Katy- is understandable, as she faces issues that many of us will encounter at some point in life. Serle addresses grief, understanding love, and finding ourselves. I loved the visual descriptions of Positano, but I wasn’t huge on the fantastical element (I won’t have spoilers). If you want to discuss this book further, you can find me fantasizing about booking a trip to Positano 🤣✈️
