Overview

If midlife is a plot twist, Lola Bloom is the woman rewriting the ending. After forty-something years of prairie winters, familiar faces, and playing it safe, Lola uproots her life, her family, and her sense of direction to chase a fresh start across the ocean. What follows is a year of cultural misfires, caffeinated chaos, and quiet breakthroughs-part love letter, part survival guide, and part what the hell am I doing? Told in a fictionalised, choose-your-own-adventure style, The Flamingo Diaries invites readers to decide which of Lola's escapades to follow next-from career shake-ups and family mayhem to rediscovering joy (and herself) one hilarious, heartfelt chapter at a time. Between PTA politics, hormonal surprises, and the ongoing mystery of British roundabouts, Lola discovers that starting over in midlife isn't about becoming someone new-it's about finally coming home to yourself. The Flamingo Diaries: A Midlife Memoir-in-Motion is a funny, fierce, and beautifully honest story of reinvention, resilience, and rediscovering your spark at any age. It's proof that it's never too late to stand tall, laugh loudly, and live brightly-wherever you may be. Perfect for readers who enjoy the wit and warmth of Marian Keyes or the relatable charm of Sophie Kinsella, this uplifting women's fiction debut celebrates friendship, second chances, and the beautiful chaos of finding yourself again after forty.
