NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "A beautifully written, extraordinary quest in which two ordinary, overlooked women embark on an unlikely scientific expedition to the South Seas."--Helen Simonson, author of Major Pettigrew's Last Stand WINNER OF THE WILBUR SMITH ADVENTURE WRITING PRIZE - From the bestselling author of The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry comes an uplifting, irresistible novel about two women on a life-changing adventure, where they must risk everything, break all the rules, and discover their best selves--together. She's going too far to go it alone. It is 1950. London is still reeling from World War II, and Margery Benson, a schoolteacher and spinster, is trying to get through life, surviving on scraps. One day, she reaches her breaking point, abandoning her job and small existence to set out on an expedition to the other side of the world in search of her childhood obsession: an insect that may or may not exist--the golden beetle of New Caledonia. When she advertises for an assistant to accompany her, the woman she ends up with is the last person she had in mind. Fun-loving Enid Pretty in her tight-fitting pink suit and pom-pom sandals seems to attract trouble wherever she goes. But together these two British women find themselves drawn into a cross-ocean adventure that exceeds all expectations and delivers something neither of them expected to find: the transformative power of friendship. Praise for Miss Benson's Beetle "A hilarious jaunt into the wilderness of women's friendship and the triumph of outrageous dreams."--Kirkus ReviewsShipping Notes

Basic, Profound, and Thorough
Format: Paperback
I'm a deliverance minister and walk people through forgiveness exercises on a regular basis because of the spiritual freedom that comes with forgiveness. This book is basic but very thorough and covers all the high-level points on the importance of forgiveness without getting into the weeds. Book is thin; not overwhelming to non-readers.

Excellent book!
This is the best book on forgiveness that I’ve ever read. Only read this if you are serious about working through unforgiveness and bitterness. I learned that it is okay to have boundaries and limitations, but first you must forgive.

Buy more than one! Shareable!
Format: Paperback
This is a small book and a quick read, but don’t let that fool you. It’s packed with truths that will encourage the reader to forgive those that have wronged them. This book was required reading for a class I took. After reading it, I decided to buy several copies to give to friends.
What you’ll learn: When someone offends us we often feel we have a right to an apology, and perhaps we do. We might even want revenge. But what we don’t realize is that unforgiveness only hurts the one offended. It’s like filling a cup with poison for your offender and then drinking it yourself. You become poisoned by your own hurt, anger, thoughts or words against that person. When we refuse to forgive, we become enslaved to bitterness, and bitterness can take root in our mind, spirit, and body. We become sick.
When we forgive, we release the offender from blame, or forgive their debt to us. We leave the situation (or revenge) in God’s hands, and we move on. The result is freedom!
“For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your Heavenly Father will also forgive you.” Matthew 6:14
