When her life very publicly implodes, an impulsive solo trip changes everything.
Kate works at a strip-mall travel agency, selling dream vacations to retirees while quietly ignoring the fact that her own predictable life feels anything but dreamy.
But when a public confrontation with her longtime boyfriend turns her into an embarrassingly viral sensation, she is forced to confront how little of her life she has actually chosen for herself. With a mix of shame and freedom, and a newly inflated follower count, Kate leaves everything behind for a journey of self-discovery.
Each stop offers a new perspective on the woman she wants to become, from chaotic joy in Barcelona to challenging her own assumptions in Tangier. In Paris, less a city than a lifelong fantasy, Kate faces a quiet reckoning. She begins to understand that there is a difference between the stories we tell ourselves and the lives we are brave enough to live.
Blending humor and heart, Places We'll Go explores modern womanhood, identity, and the tension between our real lives and the ones we carefully curate online. Upbeat and uplifting, it combines the fish-out-of-water charm of Emily in Paris with the soul-searching depth of Eat, Pray, Love, written for the social media age.
This is a novel that asks what it truly means to choose yourself, and whether you can return home changed without losing who you were before.
Perfect for readers who love:
- Viral fame and public meltdowns
- Solo travel and starting over
- French romance in Paris
- Influencer culture and messy reality
- Choosing yourself over love
