3.57 AVERAGE


I did enjoy this book, listened to it on audiobook and read some of it. It follows Abbie who goes to stay in London for a year and ends up room mates with 3 men who she thought were women. She ends up having 2 love interests which who she doesn't know how to chose between. I was glad of the ending and I didn't see one of the twists coming. There is a heavy plot of a bit of a mystery going on which fell flat at the beginning and felt a bit slow maybe but I liked the end result for that though too. Overall, an easy read, enjoyable and would recommend.

Girl Abroad is SO GOOD! I’m SO glad she picked Jack—I love him so much. This book had me sobbing and giggling every five pages, a perfect balance of emotion and humor. The vibrant descriptions of London made me want to pack my bags and move there immediately. Elle Kennedy's writing is captivating, making every moment feel real and relatable. The character development is fantastic, and the romance is swoon-worthy. It was so good, PLEASE read!

This is a bit different than what Elle Kennedy typically writes, but I thoroughly enjoyed it! It's very much a coming of age, self discovery journey for our main girl Abbey, as she navigates life away from her father and on her own for the first time ever. The friendships she makes are unique, the tension between her love interests sizzled, and the added mystery of her research was a fun twist to the story!
