The Wonder of Now by Jamie Beck
3.0

I was honestly was surprised by this one — the cover totally threw me off and I thought it was a memoir instead of the fiction book I was expecting! Turns out, it’s fiction after all! But then I thought it would be a sexy or steamy romance, and it wasn’t that at all either. WHERE WAS MY BRAIN?? Who knows. What this book WAS, however, was the story of an adventurous woman post-breast cancer on a European book tour of her raw and vulnerable memoir and the publicist with his own emotional past who accompanies her on the trip. You can probably guess how it plays out from that sentence alone, and there wasn’t much in this one that surprised me, but it was an enjoyable one night read once I finally understood what i was ACTUALLY reading.
