I enjoyed the book. I just felt like the author dragged it out a little causing me to forget what I thought was the point. A group of friends wanting to assist their friend in trying to rediscover her gin self. Along the journey they realize while they are trying to reignite her passion for life they end up confronting the issues no one is aware of.

For me this was a listen of a different kind, almost like a TV show but in audiobook format. This was what spiked my interest as well as it’s being an Australian production, meaning I don‘t often get the chance to listen to things like this from home whilst living here in Germany. So it gave me the possibility to be transported back home, had a bit if nostalgia etc. The themes were prevalent to me, being also the age group of the main characters. I found I could identify with a lot if this but not at all with the characters behaviours. The swearing did get a bit much, didn‘t like the music, very repetitive. And the last part of the story was not very realistic.

honestly thought I wouldn’t fancy this once I realized it was more legit radio show vs book via audio but it’s actually been surprisingly great & reminding me of my best friends and how we’d probably be in our 40s/50s (we are all 29, nearing 30), tbh! it was just so charming and HILARIOUS! I thoroughly enjoyed it & am v glad it was on Audible Escape to borrow! Definitely a good light hearted one to pick if you’re feeling down or stressed!
