The Island - By: Debbie, 24 Aug 2008 
I could not put this book down. It was beautifully written with compassion & in fact, drove me to book a holiday in Crete to visit the island myself which was everything I thought it would be.
I recommend this book only if you have time to spare to read til the end. Compelling, tragic & wonderfully written. I have lent this book to members of my family who alll feel the same way. I understand people have compared it to John Tayman's book Under my Skin, but this was written beautifully even though it may not contain lots of hard hitting medical facts.
where's the substance? - By: Ms. L. J. Armstrong, 17 Aug 2008 
Well what can I say, it is a holiday read that lacks depth & anything else reallly. For what it is, it is a mildly diverting read with a few interesting bits thrown in. Hmmm...Richard & Judy have alot to answer for.
Fantastic Book!! - By: D. Alper, 05 Aug 2008 
Could't put the book down. Read it in 2 days. Fascinating, believable characters. You felt like you were there.
The Island - By: P. Wire, 05 Aug 2008 
Read this book on holiday & could not put it down - lovely story which made me want to find out more about Spinalonga. I am looking forward to reading Victoria Hislops next book.
