How far would you go for love?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEighteen-year-old Billy Reed has few qualifications but is desperate to leave home. He's working a dead-end job as a gravedigger, his parents' marriage is falling apart, his Grandad's engaged to a woman half his age, and he's never been kissed. But when Billy meets Eva, an older, mysterious girl from Switzerland, things start to change.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEva is all that Billy isn't: she's passionate about Russian literature, Gary Numan, wind farms, and chai tea, and always ready for adventure. She makes Billy want to break out of his comfort zone and live his life to the fullest. But when Eva returns to Switzerland, Billy is heartbroken. He gambles everything for a chance to be with her: scrambling across Europe, hitch-hiking with truckers, walking with refugees, and encountering suicidal cows. But the further he goes, the harder it is to be sure what he's chasing—and what he's running from.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBilly's journey is filled with hilarious and heartwarming moments as he navigates through Europe, encountering a cast of eccentric characters along the way. He meets a group of refugees who are fleeing their war-torn country, and he joins them on their journey, walking with them through the harsh terrain and sharing their stories. He also meets a trucker who takes him on a wild ride across the continent, and he learns about the challenges of being a long-distance driver.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Billy travels further, he begins to question his own motives and the true nature of his love for Eva. He realizes that he has been running from his own problems and his own fears, and he is not ready to face them. He returns to Switzerland, hoping to find closure and to be with Eva, but he is confronted with the reality of their relationship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEva is not the person he thought she was, and their relationship is not as perfect as he had imagined. She has her own demons and her own struggles, and she is not willing to sacrifice her own happiness for Billy's. Billy is heartbroken, but he also realizes that he has grown and changed as a person during his journey.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the end, Billy returns home, but he is not the same person he was when he left. He has learned to be more open and vulnerable, and he has learned to appreciate the beauty of the world around him. He has also learned that sometimes, the things we are chasing are not always what we need, and that sometimes, the love we are looking for is already within us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCows Can't Jump is a funny and touching story about the power of love and the importance of facing our own fears and demons. It is a reminder that sometimes, the greatest adventures and the greatest love stories begin when we are willing to take a chance and to be open to the possibilities of the world around us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 272g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 130 x 196 x 27 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781911107354                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Phil Bowne","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44098972418298,"sku":"9781911107354","price":5.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/ea637347329d69caa5325db101fb3fb4.jpg?v=1621100363","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/cows-cant-jump","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
