I really enjoyed the first book in this series title Eventually Julie, so I was pleased that we were back with the girls and this time focusing on Dimity, Maria and Nicki.

These girls to me are like friends and as I started reading I knew I was in for another treat and felt I was already connected from the first page.

Dimity is married to Malcolm with two daughters, she is always struggling to please Malcolm’s mother and feels she is at times left behind and has to raise her girls and put her career as a designer on hold while Malcolm goes and makes a name for himself. She goes to surprise him while he is on a works trip and things don’t quiet go to plan leaving her running back to the airport and jumping on a plane to Greece.

Maria and Nicki are sisters and while Maria has life sorted with husband Antonio and their son, Nicki is trying for a child with Marco but it isn’t happening.

Maria and Antonio head off to Greece looking for some answers where Maria finds her mum has hidden invitations to her Greek families wedding and christenings. Nicki takes some time out from Marco and goes to stay with Maria, but as Maria flies off to Greece will her sister be far behind?

While these three friends who sadly once lost touch their life paths now bring them back together.

The Greek Tapestry is a very detailed journey of love, friendship, emotions and strong women who fight for what they want. With beautiful vivid descriptions of Greece you feel like you are right there sitting in the thick of the action. Once again Anthea Syrokou delivers a beautiful story and one that will stay with me for a long time to come.

About the Author

Anthea Syrokou is an author who grew up and resides in Sydney, Australia. Her love for writing was planted at a young age when she studied Greek mythology. Anthea’s love for literature continued well into her teenage years when she enjoyed reading novels by many of the great English writers.

As a young adult, she immersed herself in reading women’s contemporary fiction and writing about topics, that many could relate to, in a witty, light-hearted way, which became a passion — one that she takes very seriously.

Anthea has a BA degree, majoring in psychology and industrial relations, and a diploma in counselling. She also studied Greek literature at university and has worked in direct marketing, and insurance and investments.

Anthea is currently working on her new novel, and is also writing articles and posts on everyday issues.

When she isn’t writing or reading, Anthea enjoys travelling, yoga, spending time with her family, and escaping to the vineyards. A quiet house with some jazz playing in the background, surrounded by a few lit scented candles is her idea of relaxation. Even though Anthea dreams about hosting the “perfect” dinner party, she is more likely to be found at a cosy, candlelit restaurant. She lives with her husband and their two sons, and often jokes that she may be the only writer who doesn’t own a cat.

Anthea is also a member of the Australian Society of Authors.
