After a family tragedy life had almost come to stand still
for almost forty year old Charlie Blundell. Charlie finds working as a
presenter for her local hospital radio a comfort helping others. On a drunken
night with friend Mercedes the pair comes up with an alternate Bucket List, A
Carpe Diem list, with challenges set for each other to complete.
When the radio station desperately need funds raising or it
risks having to shut down, Charlie’s challenges become sponsored and are picked
by the radio listeners putting more pressure on Charlie to complete each
task. Charlie must leave her comfort
zone behind, overcome her fears, and deal with a stalker ex-boyfriend to save
the radio station. Is she up for the
challenge?
What I liked about this book is that it made me want to leap
up of the sofa and get out and do something! This is a story of learning to
live life to the full, about turning things around and changing things for the
better. I like the way Carol turns what could have been such a sad story into such
a positive and lively tale.
