I have had Come Away with Me by Karma Brown on my shelf for a long time. It was a good read, though somewhat sad, with a twist that surprised me at the end. Overall, I enjoyed it. It’s quite reminiscent of Eat, Pray, Love. Since I’m on vacation and don’t feel like thinking too much right now, the story synopsis comes from Amazon: “One minute, Tegan has everything she could hope for: an adoring husband and a baby on the way. The next, a patch of black ice causes a devastating accident that will change her life in ways she never could have imagined. Tegan is consumed by grief—not to mention her anger toward Gabe, who was driving on the night of the crash. But just when she thinks she’s hit rock bottom, Gabe reminds her of their Jar of Spontaneity, a collection of their dream destinations and experiences, and so begins an adventure of a lifetime. From…Thailand to…Italy to…Hawaii, Tegan and Gabe embark on a journey to escape the tragedy and search for forgiveness. But they soon learn that grief follows you no matter how far away you run, and that acceptance comes when you least expect it.” This one is only $3.99 on Amazon and I’d say that’s worth it – a good beach choice if you are so lucky to find yourself there this summer.
