I‘m not going 2say there was anything groundbreaking here, but I‘ll say it had great reminders of the things we should be doing when experiencing stress or burnout. (It‘s amazing when stuck in a stress cycle how easy it is 2forget that something as easy as eating regular meals can help.) It‘s a straightforward, easy 2read book, w/good prompts &helpful tips. I do think it helped me w/a few reminders &can see this being a good gift for a new adult.

GlassAsDiamonds Agreed - I found it realy useful trying to come out of burnout and have recommended it a bunch but you‘re right, the hidden formula to Life, The Universe and Everything isn‘t hiding in it. 🤣💛🤣 2mo
Kristy_K @GlassAsDiamonds I found it the perfect book for me to read right now. A lot of great reminders that I think we can all use! 2mo

This was my first Sophie Kinsella book, and I was surprised by how much I laughed out loud. From the quirky supporting cast to the outrageous scenarios, this really was a fun read. It was, however, grounded in serious moments too, like coping with job burnout, aging and dementia, etc. I really enjoyed it!

I know I've been a lot less active lately, but I've missed y'all and wanted to say hi! Work has run me straight into complete and utter burnout (there aren't enough characters allowed for me to give the whole story). I know work stress is relatable to many, so I'm not claiming to be unique. But no job is worth tanking your mental health and sacrificing your well-being. I've decided to take a mental health leave and plan to read books with HEAs 🫶

swishandflick There will be therapy involved in addition to romance books, btw. That wasn't my only treatment plan 🤣 2mo

I‘m so happy I picked this one up. Great narration on the audiobook. Kinsella brought a fun cast of characters, a wonderful locale, issues and laugh out loud moments.

Infinite waves. Infinite chances. You can‘t dwell or think about what might have been. There‘s always another wave. Although you have to be looking the right way to see it 🌊

A brown butter blondie (with pecans and dark chocolate chunks), the last few chapters of this cute book, and a little milk - a pretty good way to spend a Tuesday evening 💕

Man alive, did the early pages of this book ever send me spiralling back to a time when I wished I could have run away from my desk to literally run into a brick wall. Happily, that is just the opening pages. It's been ages since I read a Kinsella and this had me laughing right out loud and turning the pages far later into the nigh than I should have. What a hilarious group of supporting characters!
