Swoon. Hiking the Camino is now on my bucket list. Alison Cochrun has a great habit of making me fall in love with characters I’m not necessarily attracted to. They’re just so human and trying so hard to human - and then they get it right and the payoff is chef’s kiss. I loved the vulnerability but that it wasn’t cliche. I loved the scenery. I loved the characters, each unique in their own way. Stefano cracked me up- I wish I had a friend like him. But the others too. Great cast for both Sadie and Mal’s journey. Everything clicked. Highly recommend this one whether you’re on a journey or not.

Short summary: Sadie’s existential crisis becomes an out loud problem when she thinks her plane is going down and she comes out to her seat mate - beautiful/handsome Mal. Who she’s never going to see again. Until Mal shows up on her 200mile trek through Portugal.
