Gerald Durrell, my family, and other animals. it’s a personal favorite of mine for light reading. If you want something a little more serious try his brother Lawrence who wrote several novels about Crete I’m not mistaken.

The Silence Factory by Bridget Collins is set partially in Greece and is a very good read.
If you enjoy mythological re-telling’s I recommend Ariadne by Jennifer Saint and Circe by Madeline Miller.
