This book was absolutely delightful. From the very beginning I admired Helen and her strength to want to do something for herself. She knew it was going to be hard, but it’s what she needed to give herself a chance to start fresh. Jake is her immature little brother’s best friend, and kind of a nuisance himself to Helen. She finds herself getting ready for her trip of a lifetime! All to be spoiled by her Jake. Well I don’t know about spoiled as much as not exactly how she pictured it. She goes in her grand adventures and finds pieces of herself she didn’t know she needed. This book was very sweet and I love the idea of creating happiness for ourselves and finding the good in everyday to focus our outlooks on

Read this book after watching the movie recently. I appreciated the differences in storylines because this one felt a lot more realistic and less like a rom com.

What an unlikable and unredeemable main character. Truly a hateful, judgmental, cold-hearted person. She did not deserve happiness. Or a smoking hot love interest. Or a loyal brother.

Very cute story. I've been meaning to read Katherine Center for a long time now, and I'm glad to have both a new release and a hefty backlist to continue with! The characters were delightful, and I loved all they went through on the hike, and all their life stories as well.

I read this book because I enjoyed the movie, and of course I think the book is better. I enjoyed mostly every part, but the bit about three good things a day felt impactful in a way I didn't expect.
