"From the New York Times bestselling author of Garden Spells comes an enchanting tale filled with magical realism and moments of pure love that won't let you go. Between the real and the imaginary, there are stories that take flight in the most extraordinary ways. Right off the coast of South Carolina, on Mallow Island, The Dellawisp sits-a stunning cobblestone building shaped like a horeshoe and named after the tiny turquoise birds who, alongside its human tenants, inhabit an air of magical secrecy. When Zoey comes to claim her deceased mother's apartment on Mallow Isalnd, she meets her quirky and secretive neighbors, including a girl on the run, two estranged middle-aged sisters, a lonely chef, a legendary writer, and three ghosts. Each with their own story, Each with their own longings. Each whose ending isn't written yet"--… (más)

On a small island in South Carolina, buried behind the highly tourist-focused main street is a building made up of five condos. When Zoey Hennessy moves into her deceased mother's old condo, she has hopes of both connecting with the mother she barely knew and making some new friends. What she doesn't expect is that the death of one of the other tenants in the condo building will unravel the secrets of several of her new neighbours.

This was a really charming piece of magical realism with a strong theme of found family. All of the characters Allen crafts are deeply sympathetic and there are several reveals that occur over the course of the book that surprised me (although several I saw coming). If you're looking for a soothing read, that provides similar vibes to sinking into a warm bath, this might just be the read for you. ( )

Zoey moves from Tulsa to a South Caroline coastal island, Mallow Island, where her late mother kept a small apartment for her. She moves in with Pigeon, her imaginary bird friend, who is the spirit of her late mother, Paloma. She meets the other residents of the small apartment complex and finds friends, surrogate fathers, and a love interest. ( )

This had so much potential but it really left me feeling kind of flat. I love a story of found family but this seemed to fall short of making me care about most of the characters. I kept waiting for something else to happen to knit it all together but it never really materialized in the way I thought it should have.

What a perfectly crafted story! I love Ms. Allen's ability to weave magic and wonder into every page. The characters are wonderful, and she reveals them with slow, tantalizing care. And I include Mallow Island itself as one of the primary characters of the book.

She never slides into cliché rom-com trope. This novel is a breath of fresh air, a joy to read on every page, even in the most painful parts.

Thank you, Ms. Allen, for a beautiful read. ( )
