Women's Fiction Friendship
Your next travel read or Book Club pick, this compelling, vulnerable, and searching story will resonate long after you've finished. Perfect for fans of Normal People, One Day, and Thunder in My Heart. It's 2003, and Margo, an introspective college student, is reeling from a bad breakup. She's looking forward to a mellow semester abroad in Edinburgh, Scotland. She wonders if she's ready to have an adventure, or if she's using the trip to run away from her ex. Things get interesting quickly: the first night in her new flat, she meets her neighbor, Ren, a beautiful and mysterious engineering student. Navigating her new city, she's overwhelmed by the beautiful architecture, centuries of history, and handsome university students in pea coats. Struggling with the pace of her courses and unsure of how to nurture her friendships, Margo's brain works overtime to make sense of her environment. She hopes that Ren will grow to see her the way she sees him, but she's unwilling to quietly pine away in the meantime. Instead, she throws herself into the social - and sensual - opportunities that studying abroad offers. Margo creates a life out of fragments: cappuccinos with fluffy foam, long runs to clear her head, museums with friends, and spicy encounters. Despite the existential crisis looming over the life she's building, Margo is determined to find her place in the world.
