Fiction. Literature. HTML:From the author of Something to Live For, a nostalgic, heart-warming story of two long-lost friends who embark on a 184-mile walk of the Thames Path in order to find their way back to the truth, and to their friendship.
How do you move forwardâ?¦when all you want to do is go back?
Joel and Theo havenâ??t spoken since the summer they turned sixteen, but thatâ??s about to change.
From the outside Joel looks like the picture of success: a TV scriptwriter with a smash hit whoâ??s still together and in love with his teenage sweetheart, Amber. But he's falling apart at the seams. He's headed home to reconnect with best friend Theoâ??to get back to the start of it all.
 
Theo has been living in his parents' shed, nursing a broken heart and a wounded ego, convinced life can't get any worse. Then he gets evicted on his 30th birthday. He thinks he's done with the real world - until it shows up on his doorstep...

One of them is keeping a secret, and the other is living a lie. But can the promise they once made to walk all 184 miles of the Thames Path help them find their way back to the truthâ??and to

This book was both heartwarming and hilarious--a great combination! It tells the story of boyhood friends who have become estranged but then reunite with a plan to walk the Thames Trail in England. The story is told in alternating chapters from the point of view of each of the men and also goes back in time to explain what led to their estrangement. I very much enjoyed this format; it was very engaging, and the pace moved quickly. The characters were flawed but likeable, and although I wish the ending had been different, it did not detract from my overall enjoyment of the book. It reminded me of The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry or The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepper, but with much younger protagonists. Highly recommend! ( )

Not great literature, but a pleasant enough read. ( )
