About this listen
What's the point of finding yourself if you lose your heart in the process?
Ren Molson should be chasing a bright new future. Instead, she's spent the last two years floundering in a small-town community college. She hates being the only lesbian she knows, and a virgin. She's tired of watching her friends move forward while her momentum stalls. Most of all, she's sick of feeling lost and confused about who she is or what she's supposed to do with her life. Desperate for a change, Ren hopes to use her Spanish class tour through Spain to remake herself.
True to her plan, as Ren travels through Spain, she learns more about herself than the country she's visiting. What she doesn't expect is to fall in love with her beautiful young tour guide, Lina Montero. She'll have to decide if her life can handle any more uncertainty and just how far she's willing to go in order to become the person she thought she wanted to be.

They love Christmas music, Christmas food, Christmas carols, and Christmas movies.

What would you change about your past if you had the chance? What if you didn't have a choice? Stevie Geller doesn't do conflict. She likes her job as a successful novelist and playwright because it allows her to peacefully ensconce herself in her New York City loft, avoid human interactions, and leave personal drama for the page and stage. When her agent asks her to return to her hometown of Darlington, Illinois, to accept an award, she agrees only because he promises the process will be quick and easy.

Good story annoying narrator
The story was sweet but the narrator kept pulling me out of it. How to describe this narrator...she’s like what jello would sound like if it had a voice: bulbous, wobbly and jiggly. In short it seems as though her tongue is too big for her mouth.

A young story
The story is cute, very young for an old woman like me, but a nice way to learn about Spain, about the life of students like the ones I have...
Narration was good when accent was needed, but the main character sounded more like she is going to cry any minute and that got on my nerves more than once.
The end was quite predicted
All in all I looked it and I would recommend it to the younger audience.
