'Say hello to a book that will have you laughing with every page, whether you're 20, 40 or 80' – Heat
A novel for any woman who wonders how the hell she got here, and why life isn't quite how she imagined it was going to be. And who is desperately trying to figure it all out when everyone around them is making gluten-free brownies.
Meet Nell. Her life is a mess.
In a world of perfect Instagram lives, she feels like a disaster. But when she starts a secret podcast and forms an unlikely friendship with Cricket, an eighty-something widow, things begin to change. Because Nell is determined. This time next year things will be very different. But first, she has a confession . . .
'Brilliant! Laughing out loud' – Emma Gannon, podcaster (Ctrl Alt Delete) and author of Olive

Customer Reviews
Great
Great book
Really really good book
I couldn’t put it down. So refreshing to read a book that shows you that a life can be a good life in many different ways without talking about how horrible to have children or to be married. Just showing everyone’s experiences are different and everyone has ups and downs. I have read books that have similar themes but they were all negative millennials (I am a millennial). This book has love, hope as well as reality in it.
Funny, witty, I did not want to put the book down
I was laughing most of the time. Something I can relate with.
