The Road Trip

De: Beth O'Leary

Narrado por: Josh Dylan, Eleanor Tomlinson

Two exes reach a new level of awkward when forced to take a road trip together in this endearing and humorous novel by the author of the international bestseller The Flatshare.

What if the end of the road is just the beginning?

Four years ago, Dylan and Addie fell in love under the Provence sun. Wealthy Oxford student Dylan was staying at his friend Cherry’s enormous French villa; wild child Addie was spending her summer as the on-site caretaker. Two years ago, their relationship officially ended. They haven’t spoken since.

Today, Dylan’s and Addie’s lives collide again. It’s the day before Cherry’s wedding, and Addie and Dylan crash cars at the start of the journey there. The car Dylan was driving is wrecked, and the wedding is in rural Scotland—he’ll never get there on time by public transport.

So, along with Dylan’s best friend, Addie’s sister, and a random guy on Facebook who needed a ride, they squeeze into a space-challenged Mini and set off across Britain. Cramped into the same space, Dylan and Addie are forced to confront the choices they made that tore them apart—and ask themselves whether that final decision was the right one after all.

marvelous

loved the cadence of the book and the way the author wrote it so I could feel the emotions. brilliant narrators too. they both did an excellent job with the different voices. would highly recommend this book and the author.

Good Story, Rough Story

Beth is a great storyteller. I enjoy her writing very much. This story was rough with flawed characters and bits of humor sprinkled in. People are flawed and I am glad Beth shared this story with us. It did take me a bit to get used to the then and now jumps, especially in audio but it worked. Thank you Beth.

lovely story of growing up and 2nd chances

This book is brilliantly narrated. The fears/vices quite relatable. The humor was timely. And the specifically unique characters, memorable. I am charmed.
