The beginner's guide to loneliness / Laura Bambrey.

Tori Williamson is alone. After a tragic event left her isolated from her loved ones, she's been struggling to find her way back to, well, herself. That's why she set up her blog, The Beginner's Guide to Loneliness, as a way of 'anonymously' connecting with the outside world and reaching others who just need a little help sometimes. When she's offered a free spot on a wellbeing retreat in exchange for a review on her blog, Tori is anxious about opening herself up to new surroundings. But after her three closest friends - who she talks to online but has never actually met - convince her it'll do her some good, she reluctantly agrees and heads off for three weeks in the wild (well, a farm in Wales). From the moment she arrives, Tori is sceptical and quickly finds herself drawn to fellow sceptic Than, the retreat's dark and mysterious latecomer. But as the beauty of The Farm slowly comes to light she realizes that opening herself up might not be the worst thing. And sharing a yurt with fellow retreater Bay definitely isn't. Will the retreat be able to fix Tori? Or will she finally learn that being lonely doesn't mean she's broken?
