The Write Escape

The Wright Escape was an easy read for anyone who is interested in a romance book that centers on two unlikely people connecting with each other in a small town off the coast of Ireland. Antonia is trying to recover from heartbreak and a breakdown after losing her job, and discovering her fiancé has been cheating on her. so in an effort to use the expected honeymoon destination, she travels to Ireland to focus on the novel. She's been trying to write for the past few years and then we have Aiden a near 10 year Irish literature professor who is still trying to find himself. Constantly consumed with , the loss of his last relationship and the disappearance of his father, Aiden, surprised to find new inspiration, hope and joy when he needs Antonia. I have listened to the narrator of this audiobook on several different occasions, and they were OK for those other books, but for this book, I did not enjoy their attempts at an Irish accent. I just did not feel it was the right fit for the audiobook and that made it less enjoyable for me. Likewise, I found it annoying that Aiden and Antonia found so many agreeable things to talk about in terms of literature, and historical or cultural connections he was just too , much of a guy from page one, and while I understand the physical attraction between the two for them to be together about a week and fall madly in love each other in this little Irish village bubble, that they were in it, pulled me out of the story. If their relationship had developed and they agreed to do Long-distance dating for moving in with each other like they did the end I would've enjoyed this book more. More over, while Antonia gained confidence in herself as a writer, and Aiden was able to accept himself for who he was, and gain confidence in his own way for standing up and being there for Antonia being the man that she deserved, I still felt like Antonia was giving up herself , or putting all of who she was in this new relationship with Aiden. Because she immediately dropped her life in Chicago and moved her stuff to his place to live with him while they were still newly dating. Yes, she did not want to go back to the publishing Position she had in Chicago but it seemed like she was leaving more behind just to be with Aiden, like her family, and the potential to seek other opportunities, while in the states and work on her book.
