Two fascinating main characters decide to walk the Camino for very different reasons, from the same starting point. I've been curious about the Camino de Santiago since I first heard about it, and reading this book made me think seriously about whether it might be something I'd like to do myself sometime! 

I appreciated the way the story, the walk, gave so many characters opportunities to get to know themselves better, to deal with things in their past and prepare for what is coming up next for them.
