Decent little overview of Malta, finished on my first day here!

I have only been to Malta once. I’d love to go again.

This book wasn’t great. A LOT of repetition and vague chapters…of about three pages a pop. No page numbers throughout but a contents page that was numbered?!
Poorly edited, the gaps (multiple widths) within the spacing of sentences could of saved about six chapters (let alone the overuse of particular phrases. It almost made it feel like a gsce mashed essay that was written after forgetting the deadline. Good old AI without the duty of the human to check over before smashing out drivel.

Only reason I read to the end was that fact it was a short book- and I was entertained by how much certain words could be used within three pages let alone six.

I was in Malta for two weeks. The book was not the most detailed outlining but gave good recommendations for me to look up once there! It gives brief explanations to popular tourists spots on the island that are easily highlighted to do more research. The places are easy to locate once in Malta. I do highly recommend Uber when traveling to different spots. Valletta is beautiful and sand beaches get very touristy in the summer so find a spot early if you want one. In more words, the book was helpful and insightful on brief understanding plus history of the island Malta.
