Audiobook 1 of the year - trying them out. 

This was a cute one. It took my brain some time to adjust to the British narrator, but as it was set in Britain it felt very right. 

Sasha is so relatable as the MC - she’s had massive work burnout, it’s taken over her life, and she just doesn’t know what to do about it. We’ve all been there. Have to say I’ve never tried running away to join a convent to avoid it though… 😂  Her inner thoughts really take the stage in this book and I enjoyed the way it revealed the judgements and insecurities and questions she was having throughout the book. 

Fin is also a cute and yet realistic MMC. He isn’t perfect, they have communication problems, and there is no love at first sight here. He’s a flawed individual just like Sasha and it makes their interactions feel much more real. I was really rooting for them, but also wanted to hit him over the head for not opening up. 

The back setting of this funky but rundown hotel with a hilarious cast of characters mixed with some endearing childhood memories is so sweet and ends up feeling like the perfect backdrop for this story, despite my initial reservations. (See what I did there? 😉) They all end up taking on a life of their own that is pivotal to Sasha’s life check. 

This whole book was quirky and relatable and funny and I really enjoyed it. I do wonder if I would have enjoyed it more in a physical copy, but I surprised myself by enjoying the audiobook too.
