The Breakaway

---

The Breakaway is a refreshing contemporary novel about the courage to step out of one’s comfort zone and find oneself in unexpected places. The story centers on Abby Stern, a woman who has spent most of her life feeling insecure about her body and trying to live up to her perfectionist mother's expectations. When Abby agrees to lead a group bike tour from New York City to Niagara Falls, she hopes the trip will provide clarity about her future, including her upcoming marriage to her "safe" but predictable fiancé.

However, Abby's plans take a sharp turn when she realizes that one of the tour participants is Sebastian, a man she shared an unforgettable night with two years ago—a man she never expected to see again. During this grueling yet liberating cycling trip, Abby faces not only emotional tension with Sebastian but also forms unique bonds with a diverse group of cyclists. Along the winding roads, Abby begins to question what she truly wants from life. The book explores themes of friendship, family secrets, and the power of letting go of past burdens. Abby learns that true beauty comes from her own physical and emotional strength, not from a number on a scale. With warm humor and poignant moments, Jennifer Weiner takes readers on a physical and emotional journey that reminds us that sometimes we have to get lost to find our true path home.
