The Education of Caroline picks up ten years after Sebastian and Caroline's devastating separation. Caroline is now a freelance journalist living on Long Island just like she and Sebastian always planned. She's sent on an assignment in Afghanistan with a stop in Geneva on the way. There she runs into Sebastian, now an interpreter for the Marine Corps.Sebastian is not as happy about seeing Caroline as she is about seeing him. He has always hoped that Caroline would try to find him and when he finally gave up hope he turned to alcohol and women. It doesn't take long for him to come around though and the next thing we know they're spending a week touring Italy on a motorcycle while Sebastian is on leave and while Caroline is waiting for the all clear to be sent to Kabul.It was so sweet seeing them together again living out the dreams they used to whisper to each other ten years ago. I also thought the book took a fascinating turn with their time spent in the war zone and I thought the after effects were realistic. Such a great ending for the couple. I loved it!
