Odd - I loved the premise and a true Middle Aged female main character. The fantastical life circumstances just kept taking me out of the text.

Solid 3! I feel like I loved it up till 3/4 of the way through. Agree with everyone the ending was abrupt and anti-climatic. I did think it was so funny and loved the writing. I would recommend if you are into a weird little book.
