Customer Reviews

Fun read ... can so relate to much of Heather's unplanned situations!

I liked this book even better than the first one. (It's Never Too Late To Get A Life) Once again, Angie gets involved in so much "stuff" by just living her normal life. (I can so relate.) I giggled as soon as I read the symptoms her poor friends - all three of them (and her) - exhibited, knowing full-well what was going on. The only complaint I have, is there was too much of a happy ending; that's all well and good, but it kinda detracted from the credibility and reality of the story. I'm anxious to read book number 3, even though I rarely read Chick-Lit. After attending Heather's work-shop at a Writer's Conference at Sac State last week-end, I was so impressed with the way she spoke and presented herself, I bought both of her books that are currently in print. I'll be at her book #3 signing next month.

Boy, can I relate!

It was 2AM and my hot flashes combined with my very own "fur covered hot water bottle" were keeping me awake (OK, and maybe some insomnia) when I picked up this book. Thank goodness I didn't have to go to work the next day because I not only saw the sun come up but tore up my to-do list and just enjoyed the book. I was glad to hear that there would be one more....keep them coming!

lighthearted amusing romp

As she closes in on her fiftieth birthday, Angie is at the point of no return and needs help as she is behind on planning her daughter Jenna's wedding. She turns to her best friends, but soon worries about them as she realizes none are in a mental state to assist her; instead they need help. Marie's marriage with Jack appears over; grandmother Jess dates men younger than her children; and Gwen seems like an early Alzheimer's victim with no ability to recall anything which in turn has led to a lack of self confidence which in turn leadns to more forgetfulness. She soon concludes that menopause has struck making her realize nature must take its course. At the same time, she wonders if menopause can be used as an alibi if she kills the bimbos dating her son and her former husband; they offer her help with the wedding, which means more work for her as these female morons have individual bra sizes greater than their combined IQ,. In her second adventure to regain control of her life, Angie struggles with the upcoming nuptials of her daughter, but as she seeks help from her three amigas she deduces they each face big crises. Her pals were there for her when Bob dumped her (see IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO GET A LIFE) so Angie plans to reciprocate, find time to put on a wedding and cope without killing the double teaming bimbos. Though a serious undertone with the troubles facing the aging boomers, this is a lighthearted amusing romp starring a woman who struggles to regain control of her life at a time when everything seems out of control.
