The Burnout Review: great read - I love Sophie Kinsella books and this one doesn’t disappoint at all. It’s a perfect escape from every day life. Review: I laughed out loud, I cried, and then I laughed again through tears - This book resonated with me on so many levels. I fully identify with Sasha & her burnout. Sophie Kinsella was writing directly to me/about me when describing Sasha’s state of mind about work & how it was affecting her mental health & personal life. Have I tried to join a convent & run into a brick wall while escaping my horrible office & coworkers? No, no I haven’t. But the landslide of emails, the constant inescapable workload & the irritation with useless colleagues/upper management? Yup. The lack of desire to cook, see friends & have fun? Yes, 100%. Nail on the head. On top of all that, the beach is my happy place, so right off the bat I thought this was going to be a 5-star read. Come on, reading about how work can overtake your life, ruin it, chew you up & spit you out? And then going to the beach to recuperate & heal? SIGN. ME. UP. And this was a 5-star read, until about the 85% mark. Now, don’t get me wrong, I still loved it. Finn was adorable & lovable & the perfect MMC for this story. The mystery of the messages left on the beach, Terry & his wisdom, & the side characters at the hotel. All perfection. I laughed out loud, I cried, and then I laughed again through tears. So why wasn’t it 5 stars? The ending. I expected the 3rd act breakup. My heart was prepared. And sure, Sasha & Finn got their HEA. And I am nothing if not a HEA girl. But their reconciliation felt rushed, and then the book just ended. On a fantastic callback line, I might add. But I wanted more Finn & Sophie. I needed a hefty, happy epilogue, or a couple more chapters about them reuniting & their life together after burnout. The whole book felt like eating a delicious ice cream sundae with all my favorite toppings. Then right at the end, I was left with nothing but excess hot fudge & nuts at the bottom of an empty bowl. The ratio was wrong. I needed one more bite of ice cream to balance everything out & make it perfect. I guess I’m nitpicking though. I’ll definitely read this book again to be reminded of Terry’s infinite & awesome wisdom about surfing, which somehow relates wholly to everything in life. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,355,370 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (25,207) | | Dimensions | 5.08 x 0.98 x 7.8 inches | | ISBN-10 | 1804990817 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1804990810 | | Item Weight | 9.8 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 403 pages | | Publication date | June 20, 2024 | | Publisher | Penguin (Transworld) | ## Images ![The Burnout - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71QryJ5Q9CL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great read *by A***R on March 18, 2026* I love Sophie Kinsella books and this one doesn’t disappoint at all.

I love her sense of humor, the quirkiness she gives her characters, and her relatable plots. This one was no different. I found myself totally laughing my head off (the scene with the nuns and the wall was brilliant) while also identifying 100% with the poor overwhelmed, totally burnt-out Sasha. Geez, do I feel her pain! The whole thing was brilliant and zany: the hotel and its ridiculous but lovable staff, the broken down cottages, the memories, the chaos caused by misunderstandings and fear of telling the truth... the romance (swoon). I was a little disappointed in the real reason why Finn had kept his secrets (just felt a little too unbelievable, too contrite), but the rest of the book more than makes up for it. As usual Kinsella wrote a book about being a woman in today's world with humor, compassion, and humanity. Highly recommend it. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Burnout: The hilarious, escapist romcom and instant Sunday Times bestseller - My Favourite Mistake: The No. 1 Sunday Times bestseller (Walsh Family) - The One Plus One: Discover the author of Me Before You, the love story that captured a million hearts --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fi/products/662369509-the-burnout](https://www.desertcart.fi/products/662369509-the-burnout) --- *Product available on Desertcart Finland* *Store origin: FI* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
