Goodreads review by Melany on August 13, 2022

3.5 stars I enjoyed the premise, as I'm a mom around the main character's age and feel the same about never making time for myself. Alot of the references I understood and made me nostalgic.

Goodreads review by Joan on August 15, 2024

Don’t ask me why this book resonated with me so much. The main character, Tara, is 36. I haven’t seen 36 in nearly 30 years. I am married, like she is, but I’m childless by choice. She and Paul have three kids under 14. She works full time. I’m retired. See where I’m going with this? Nothing in comm......more
