The Wild Woman's Guide to Traveling the World
The Wild Woman's Guide to Traveling the World: A Novel | Kristin Rockaway
6 posts | 4 read | 4 to read
Fans of Sophie Kinsella and The Devil Wears Prada will love this smart, sexy debut novel of wanderlust. Objectively, Sophie is a success: she's got a coveted job at a top consulting firm, a Manhattan apartment, and a passport full of stamps. It isn't quite what she dreamed of when she was a teenager dog-earing pages in exotic travel guides, but it's secure. Then her best friend bails just hours after they arrive in Hong Kong for a girls' trip, and Sophie falls for Carson, a free spirited, globetrotting American artist. He begs her to join him on his haphazard journey, but she chooses responsibility and her five-year plan. Back in New York, that plan feels less and less appealing. As Sophie recalls the dreams she's suppressed, the brief international jaunts she sneaks in between business trips no longer feel like enough. Carson isn't ready to let her go either, but as they try to figure out their relationship, Sophie realizes she may have to pursue her passions with or without him.

This book has a lot of things going for it: travel, love, major life decisions, fear of change. I feel like a lot of people can relate to just being content in their lives but not really living them. To see my full review check out my blog at www.dustysbookshelf.wordpress.com

I don‘t feel so great today but this delivery definitely raises my spirits!! I only read two of the books from my boxes last month. Maybe I will get to all of these this month 🤷🏻‍♀️🤓

I loved the fun and flirty relationship between Carson and Sophie but especially love how strong and independent she is. She solves her own problems, owns up to her mistakes and finds the life she wants to live on her own terms.

On our way back from Scotland. :) Can't wait to sort all of my bought books onto my shelves at home. :) But first: the overnight ferry and a bit more driving tomorrow.

I just started this book this morning. Am loving it so far and am thinking it would make a perfect beach read.

This was such a fun (and sexy!) read, and I definitely recommend it to anyone who has ever fantasized about chucking it all to follow their dreams (and isn't that everyone?).
