After a long time, i have read a book that was really hitting all the right places. Definitely would recommend reading this to everyone ( especially all corporate mazdurs)
Sasha worth is an overworked employee of an up and coming startup. She is overwhelmed with work at an understaffed department, the head of which doesn’t listen to her and the company’s wellness program is not helpful. Turn of events makes her end taking a holiday to the hotel of her childhood summers at the Rilston Bay. She comes there hoping to get herself back on track with her 20 step wellness program, but ends up finding a lot more about herself, her childhood memories and her purpose in life.
It’s a mesmerising story of how we pick up from where we left off when life kicks us down. It’s endearing, relatable and definitely very well written. Though i have been a fan of Sophie Kinsella’s writing, this direction she has taken is definitely fresh and commendable.

I held on because I am a sucker for audiobooks with a british accent. However my recommendation for the book ends there.

I like the premise of the book and enjoyed it at the beginning. I think the problem was that it was too long for me and the characters/plot wasn’t engaging enough to justify the length of the book.
