4.5/ Unexpectedly good. Hilarious. I WANT TO READ MORE SOPHIE KINSELA. And a great introduction to agoraphobia. I absolutely adore British humour and this book gave me that in tons. Frank, is my one of my newest favourite, his sarcasm and bravery (especially shown in the scene with the Lottons) is obvious in every scene he's in. Every single character is multi-dimensional. And well written.
Sophie Kinsella is a new favourite guilty pleasure author and I can't wait to dive into her other works

Nunca tinha lido nada da autora mas já há algum tempo que tinha curiosidade. E não podia ter escolhido melhor.
Adorei as personagens. Soltei uns risos com a mãe da Audrey 😄 a senhora tinha mesmo ataques de loucura. A Audrey é uma personagem extremamente interessante. Está a passar por uma fase complicada na vida. Achei fantástica a forma como a autora abordou essas questões.
Este livro aborda temas que me chamam muito a atenção e talvez por isso tenha dado o máximo das estrelas.
É um YA que pode e deve ser lido por toda a gente 👍

A quick and easy read. The writing doesn't disappoint, and the characters were decent but not impressionable. I liked Linus and Frank well enough, and they were both supportive enough yet never overstepping nor overshadowing Aubrey's own efforts. Linus as a romantic interest however, did fall a bit flat. Life does have its ups and downs, but the story just felt like a straight line through. Overall an average read.

I loved the book so much. To finally see a book about this subject (anxiety) is really nice and i can relate to it in some way!

Finding Audrey was an enjoyable enough read and despite having a few issues with the representation and plot in conjunction with Audrey’s anxiety, I thought the approach to anxiety and the overall way it was portrayed was incredibly positive and one I’d definitely recommend. However, I unfortunately didn’t love the story in general or warm to the characters all too much. I enjoyed my time reading this book but not as much as I was hoping to. It was an incredibly easy read and one I flew through in one sitting but I wasn’t enamoured with it.

It's very easy to read and I've read such mixed reviews about it. It's lighthearted and about a serious topic at the same time
