A review by ive_colon
An Island by Karen Jennings

3.0

Samuel has been a lighthouse keeper for 20 years when an unknown man arrives after being the only survivor on a refugee boat. All of this happens on an island off the coast of Africa. The point of views go back and forth of Samuel's life before the lighthouse. Although a quick short read, I could not get into the book. I had trouble connecting and really wanted to connect.
