Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Have you ever imagined running away from your life?
Well Birdy Finch didn't just imagine it. She did it. Which might've been an error. And the life she's run into? Her best friend, Heather's.
The only problem is, she hasn't told Heather. Actually there are a few other problems.
Can Birdy carry off a summer at a luxury Scottish hotel pretending to be her best friend (who incidentally is a world-class wine expert)?
And can she stop herself from falling for the first man she's ever actually liked (but who thinks she's someone else)?
If you're looking to replace that Fleabag- or Bridesmaids-sized hole in your life, look no further: Birdy Finch is here. A snort-out-loud rom-com with a heart of gold, The Summer Job is the debut to lose yourself in this year.

Nice Easy Listen
This was an easy read, perfect for when you want something with an easy to follow storyline and set in beautiful surroundings. However there was nothing amazing or memorable about this book and at some points I found myself getting annoyed at the characters/storyline as a lot of issues could have been solved in a much easier manner. However I liked the fact that the main character stays true to herself and didn't miraculously change over night or become an expert wine connoisseur.

Pleasant easy to listen to story.
Well read, one that you could “dip” into easily. Would recommend this book as I did enjoy it.

Terrible
Would not recommend this audiobook. I like an nice easy listen for my dog walks but this is just boring, uninteresting and feels like a slog. I have about 1 hour listening time left and I’m thinking of giving up at this point. I kept waiting for it to improve but it just isn’t.
