Reviews

Kara Bachman has fast become the woman I want living next door to me. With her razor-blade wit, tell-it-like-it-is essays on navigating middle age (while tending children), she is exploring new turf, and the grass is super green and fertile. Readers will love her style, humor and stories that are the kind where one guffaws and snorts in public while reading. Middle age never felt so good. Susan Reinhardt, author of <i>Chimes from a Cracked Southern Belle</i> and <i>Not Tonight Honey, Wait 'til I'm a Size 6</i>


This book made me laugh plenty, but it also made me think, something I usually try to avoid. Bachman's hysterical take on approaching middle age will resonate with every mama in the carpool line but it's her ability to weave profundity into the mix that sets her apart. Celia Rivenbark, New York Times bestselling author of <i>You Don't Sweat Much for a Fat Girl</i>
