Step aside Thelma and Louise, there's a new lady on a road trip and she's delightful! If you're looking for a palate cleanser after recent heavier reads or lengthy tomes (I'm looking at you, The Women and The Covenant of Water) Katharine's Remarkable Road Trip is just the ticket. A celebration of the human spirit as a 77-year-old woman sets off on a trip down memory lane with detours where she encounters strangers turned friends. Katherine’s unwavering determination to live life on her own terms reminds us of the power of courage, friendship, and self-discovery. Short, fun, and inspiring.
