Über diesen Titel
AS SEEN ON NETFLIX - AN UPLIFTING ROMANTIC COMEDY FROM THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE BODYGUARD
Sometimes to find your way, you have to get really, really lost...
Helen Carpenter has always lived her life as far from the edge as possible. Finding herself newly divorced and a little lost, Helen decides she needs a reset. So when her annoying younger brother convinces her to sign up for a hardcore wilderness survival course, she hopes the adventure will be exactly what she needs.
Instead, it's a disaster. It's nothing like she expected. She doesn't expect the surprise summer blizzard, for example-or the blisters, or the mean pack of sorority girls. And she especially doesn't expect that her annoying brother's even-more-annoying best friend, Jake, would show up for the exact same course-and distract her, derail her, and... kiss her.
But it turns out sometimes disaster can teach you exactly the things you need to learn. Like how to keep going, even when you think you can't. How being scared can make you brave. And how sometimes getting really, really lost is your only hope of getting found.

I loved the book! but it's also really my kind of story that just makes me feel good =). I was smiling more than 60% of the time while listening to it. It really was awesome.
If you like storys about overcoming difficult life situations by breaking out and doing something new and out of the ordinary (like for example "eat, pray,love" or "wild") you might like this one too. The main character doesn't go too deep into her personal issues, and is more in the present, but she still touches the issues that hurt her. Still it remains more on the lighter and more superficial end of the spectrum I would say.
All this is wrapped in a loveley love story with a bit of a "will they won't they" dynamic, set in realistic situations between the characters (no unnecessary instigations or too far fetched hurdles - I really liked that)
At first I was unsure about the voice reading it. But once I started, it really didn't bother me at all. Maybe the sample was too much out of context or I just had to get used to the voice...
Feel-Good and efforts will be rewared story
