Savannah Page is now on tour with CLP Blog Tours and When Girlfriends Take Chances
Summary:
A novel about exploring love and life’s path, and taking chances along the way.
Emily Saunders has never thought twice about grabbing her passport, rucksack, and camera and trekking across the globe. If there’s an NGO, a study abroad program, or simply the travel itch, Emily’s on the first plane out. Free-spirited, open-minded, and eager to explore, it’s no wonder Emily’s hardly in one spot (or relationship) for long.
For the past year and a half, though, Emily’s found herself planted in her college hometown of Seattle. She’s surrounded by her best friends, has steady work as a photographer and at her friend Sophie’s café, and is certainly kept busy by the wild antics of her BFF Jackie. Life’s enjoyable, but Emily’s looking for something more. She’s ready for a change, for adventure!
But when Emily tells her girlfriends she’s ready for something new she does not expect Operation Blind Date!
Sure, Emily’s single. Sure, she hopes to some day find true love. But being thrown into an insane challenge like this is not exactly the adventure she had in mind! Couldn’t she just travel and focus on her photography? Or volunteer in Africa? Will a string of eligible bachelors lined up by her friends–a shot at finding a real and lasting love–really be that change she’s searching for?
This is a spirited story about seeking adventure while being true to yourself, wherever you are in life. It’s a story about love, risk, and self-discovery. About what happens when girlfriends take chances.
Review:
I am a huge fan of Savannah Page and her Girlfriend series, and this one was no exception! I was excited to get to Emily’s story, because she has the travel bug, just like me. She’s a bit more vagabond than I am, but I loved reading her book just the same. Of course we get a healthy dose of what the other girls are up to as well, and I am just loving the way Page set up her series and each woman. The girls decide it’s time for Emily to find a man, and each girl gets to pick a blind date for her. The setups prove to be disastrous (yet quite funny) and I rooted for Emily that she stayed true to herself and her spirit throughout the book. If you haven’t read any of the books yet I highly suggest you do!
4.5 stars
