This was such joy to read. Lots of laugh-out-loud moments, and some tender-hearted ones too. This was a fast -paced, quick read reminiscent of all the older works of Terry McMillan that made us love her in the first place. I highly recommend this one for folks over 50 or aging gracefully. There are tidbits of wisdom that made me think. This book does talk about depression and mental illness , but in the best of ways. Definitely read this book!
