Passport to Happiness by Carrie Stone #Review

Welcome to today's blog and the latest novel by Carrie Stone, Passport to Happiness.


An inspiring and escapist read – Eat, Pray, Love meets Bridget Jones!



Will the trip of her dreams…

Everly Carter is bored.

With her job, with her single status and with the never ending line of rubbish men on Tinder.  Tired of going through the motions of seeming happy, Everly wants to be happy!



So, in a spontaneous moment of bravery (perhaps spurred on by a few cocktails) Everly books a holiday.  Time away, alone, to find out what she really wants from life.


Become the journey of her lifetime?


Everly’s search for happiness takes her to picturesque Swiss villages and the sunsets of glamourous Bermuda.  But with every new stamp in her passport, Everly still feels as though something is missing…


Could it be that true happiness is hard to find, until she finds herself?

My Thoughts

In this romcom, you get to follow Everly as she literally travels the world in an attempt to find a place she feels at home and people she feels comfortable with. She travels from London to Switzerland, Bermuda to Bali and you get to go along with her. The descriptions of Bermuda and Bali bring the places alive.

The best part of the book for me was the journey which Everly went on in her quest to find a place she felt at home. She soon tires of the party lifestyle and you get to see that there are other things which motivate her and which give her fulfilment. Along the way, she meets a variety of characters and shows that she can see through the fakes and seeks out those who are sincere. 

    If you want a story which literally offers you escapism, this is the one. 

In short: Foreign climes offer a whole range of possibilites.
