Very Good Condition, a little edge and shelf wear, a little rubbing and bumping to edges and corners, previous owners’ inscription on author’s page, a little crumpling to introductory pages, sticker to author’s page, sticker to front cover (see photographs)

“For someone who hates exercise, Kirsty Chambers is pretty good at running away.  Believing that happiness can be found in other geographical locations, she stalks puffins in Reykjavik, rebuffs mariachi singers in Mexico City, and tries Weasel coffee (don’t ask) in Hanoi.  With a family history of mental illness that goes back generations and a complicated, long-term relationship with depression, she’s not so much an international jetsetter as a loose cannon with a passport.
Joined by the most unreliable travel companion of them all – her mental health – Kristy goes in search of greener grass and finds that if she could only cut her head off, she would probably enjoy travel, and life, 100 per cent of the time (or 95 per cent if you include diarrhoea).  Comedy ensues.”
