***5 Stars I picked this book up at a book event, and it turned out to be the perfect vacation read! It transported me to another country and to another time via an archeological dig. It addresses so many themes, from geological phenomena to navigating the world with dietary sensitivities to finding confidence in the midst of anxiety. It's a Christmas story, to boot! If you like women's fiction with a touch of Indiana Jones, you'll enjoy Treasures. Em
Thanks to a rough breakup a year ago, Kenzi Ashbury has hunkered down in her comforts-mostly work, books, movies at home, and a glass of wine with her besties.
But Kenzi's friend Lauren decides to shake up her world even if she has to throw her on a plane herself. Together, they trek to Castel Gandolfo, Italy, to take part in an archaeological dig, right before Kenzi's work and family obligations are set to send her screaming for the safety of her couch.
Together in Italy, they mine the Roman Empire's past as Kenzi struggles to master her anxiety surrounding the upcoming family holiday and a huge project at work-the new headquarters for a famous designer. Not to mention that cute coworker who keeps emailing her!
Will the history buried in the earth help Kenzi make peace with her past and bravely step into a bigger, bolder life?
Fans of Barbara O'Neal and Sophie Kinsella will love this witty and enchanting tale!
When Kenzi decides to take a whirlwind trip to Italy-to work at an archeological site-she has no way of knowing that she'll dig up far more than just priceless artifacts. She'll also unearth a more authentic version of herself. The Treasures We Seek is a warm, thoughtful, and powerfully quiet story of self-actualization. Readers who struggle with prioritizing their own needs instead of everyone else's will find much to love in this book. So will readers who appreciate breaking out of routines and trying things that are wholly and thrillingly new. The Treasures We Seek shows how letting our insecurities crumble like shards of pottery can be the first step in seeing everything finally come together. Stacey Elza, Author of Falling Lessons
