5 Stars - I would recommend if you are feeling the "quarter life crisis" or like reading witty non-fiction or travel.

I picked up this book at Anthropologie on the sale rack. I liked the cover and the premise sounded good, turns out it was GREAT!

This book follows the life of Cara Benson as she pulls herself out of a quarter-life crisis complete with crippling anxiety, the bulk of the story occurs during a 13 day, 8 country trip, with (you guessed it) no baggage & a guy she met on OK Cupid. First of all, how intriguing! No baggage?! Also, no itinerary?! With someone you barely know... ?! Crazypants.

This book is part travel adventure, part witty dialogue, and a whole lot of what it means to be 25. If you're feeling the mid-life crisis thing... check out this book. It's a quick read, it doesn't drag, and it weaves together anxiety, finding yourself, travel, and adventure seamlessly. It's not depressing, but it's not unrealistically positive either. It seems real, it's very personal. I really loved this one!!
