Helpful Score: 3

The idea of "escaping" your life to contemplate if you made the right choices is a credible one. However, the main character was self-indulgent and not very likable and the story line was contrived. She walks out on her life - husband, job, friends - to determine if she made the right choices in her life. Her boss holds her job. Her husband waits. Friends, according to her, don't really care because those weren't true friends. An old friend takes her in no questions asked even though she walked away years ago and kept no contact. Not likely that all of those things would quite work out in that way.

I have read and enjoyed other books by Barbara Delinsky but not this one.
