Wow. I finished it just now, and the ending was a sucker punch. It was brilliant to have the epilogue from Rodney, the husband's, perspective, it saves the dissatisfaction of how she mentally resets everything she realises once she's back home.
The panic and realisation were beautifully written.
Amazing read!

The middle section was so boring, and the character so unlikeable.

Just checked out Goodreads' recommendation based on my Read shelf and this book came up. It's quite funny since this lies now on my reading pile. Got it from Bookcrossing ring.

Um livro sobre introspecção de uma senhora chamada Joan, perdida numa pensão isolada no deserto. Avalia a sua vida e os momentos com a sua família e amigos, percebendo que algumas relações deviam ser melhoradas e trabalhadas para que seja mais feliz. De forma geral, costou-me a ler, talvez por não me identificar a 100% com a personagem principal. No entanto, a história não é má.
