Meet Me at the Ruins is a contemplative story of love, friendship + anxiety, set in early 2000s Edinburgh
It's 2003, and Margo is reeling from a bad breakup. She's looking forward to a drama-free semester abroad at the University of Edinburgh, in Scotland. When she meets Ren, her beautiful and mysterious downstairs neighbor, her plans to keep things uncomplicated suddenly vanish. Struggling with the pace of her courses, and unsure of how to nurture her new friendships, Margo's brain works overtime to make sense of her environment. She longs for Ren, but she's unwilling to place her life on hold while he figures out his complicated feelings. Always trying to rise above her anxious nature, Margo throws herself into the social and romantic opportunities offered by her new city. She finds happiness in small moments, reveling in fluffy cappuccinos, long runs past ancient stone buildings, museums with friends, and surprising, spicy encounters. Despite the low rumble of an existential crisis nipping at her feet, Margo is determined to find her place in the world.
