Roland has the perfect vacation planned for Fabienne everything isorganized, booked, and paid for in advance, with the entire itinerary recordedin a notebook. Its going to be a wonderful week where they can discusstheir future together.

But before they can even get their luggageto their rental, Roland is decapitated in a freak accident. And Fabienne,stunned and alone, has no idea how to process it. So in her daze of denial, shedecides to stay and follow the itinerary as planned, as if the tragedy neverhappened.

Ghost-like, she wanders the tourist-filled streets, apassive spectator to the joys of others lives. Along the way, she meetsPaco, a local vendor with some eccentric views on life and death. Being ratherprivate normally, it isnt hard for her to lie about the companion thatnever seems to be there at that very moment, but Paco soon puts the piecestogether. His minor fascination with bizarre deaths has him all too familiarwith the tale of the recently decapitated tourist. And he realizes this womanneeds a friend right now more than anything else. So they spend a platonic weekoff and on, neither of them talking about what happened.

And thatseems to be precisely what she needs to process everything.

Amoving and mesmerizing look at life, death, and the many different ways we copewith each, written by celebrated author Lewis Trondheim and illustrated byHubert Chevillard.

Well written informative engaging and evocative
Format: Kindle
I've walked to Santiago twice, in 2016 at 65 from St. Jean and in 2019 from Le Puy and bought the book during the pandemic as I waxed nostalgic for the weeks on the road under load with beer bread and bed waiting each afternoon. Beth did a marvelous job of capturing her Camino and much of mine. I can see some of the sights again, the sunrises, the amazing stonework, the clothes drying in the afternoons, the passers by, the cultivated for centuries and still natural landscapes. I almost again feel the foot pain, the rain , the sun, the climbs, the descents, the hot cold on off showers, and the hugs. She helped me again hear the news from Radio Camino, the snoring in the gites and albergues, songs on the road, and the slightly tipsy and slightly loud cafe conversations. I could smell the the morning coffee bowl, the cheeses, the pastries, the animal dropping. And she helped me remember speedy young pilgrims, poor and semi-prosperous middle age Spaniards, paths that were old when followed by Charlemagne, D'Artagnan, and Roman legionnaires, and friends, companions and acquaintancesof all ages and duration. Very well done. Thank you Beth. Buen Camino...

Entertaining and informative
Format: Kindle
Walking the Camino has been on my bucket list for about 10 years and enjoy reading these types of books. Perhaps because of Justino's background, this is by far the most interesting and entertaining Camino story I've read. For me, it is just the right mix of her daily hiking experience along with a little historical background for context. Her subtle, sometimes self-degrading, humor is a bonus. At the end of the book she provided her daily destinations and miles walked along with a packing list which is something I wish more authors would provide. I'm in my 60's now and beginning to doubt if I will ever make the walk but after reading this book I'm still hoping.

An amazing adventure
Format: Paperback
I read this book because I’ve walked a very small portion of the Camino and was interested in what an additional 900 miles would be like. Beth’s descriptions of the day-to-day challenges did not motivate me to find out for myself, but I was very glad to experience it through her. “Walking” was well written in that I felt as though I had actually met all the interesting people along the way and shared their conversations and meals and beers. When Beth and Eric finally reached the end, I could actually feel their bittersweet finale. I highly recommend this book because it shares not only useful information if you decide to walk the Camino, but it also shares what Beth describes as a huge part of the experience, the camaraderie of all involved.

A Very Enjoyable "Glad it was you!" Story
Format: Paperback
I had a great time reading this outloud to my husband by the electric fireplace while Beth and her husband treked across France and Spain in all kinds of weather and discomfort. The journey was captivating, lovely, and hilarious all at the same time. As Beth mentions, it was not a "walk in the park" and there were many times I was glad to NOT be in her shoes, even though I envied her escaping the daily technilogical rat race we all struggle with. It did leave me wanting to go on a hike...in the sunshine....on level ground....nearby. I highly recommended the book for stress relief and enjoyable reading.
