This book was so great! So many laugh out loud moments, so fun just had it all. I devoured it in one sitting.
Thanks Netgalley and publisher for the Arc. 4.5 stars
One hell of a crazy, intense, laugh out loud, sex fuelled, anti-gun, anti-thong, anti-... can’t help herself being attracted to twenty-something-year-old-men, gun purchasing, rant playing out, criminally active, emotionally immature, emotionally affected by family, maybe unstable, worrying about drying up, peri-menopausal woman’s story all wrapped up into one book.... She see’s a shrink too. Oh, and she has two dogs.
A quick paced, easy enough read with lots of action and going’s on to keep you going.
The discussion group questions at the back had some laugh out loud bits in them too.
Just couldn't get into this book. I like the writing style though, and was looking for something a bit different and this appealed to me but sadly I just couldn't get into it. (I think this is just down to personal preference though!)
Cute Read
Funny characters
Laugh out Loud funny
Thank you NetGalley & Wishing Star Press for the ARC.
I loved the main character Leah. She was really quirky and extremely likeable. What makes this character so easy to like is the fact that she's so relatable. Hilarious, bittersweet and at times outrageous, this book is very well-written. The characters are well-developed and just as relatable. I definitely recommend this novel to anyone looking for a fun comedy that also makes you think! I had a hard time putting this book down!
“I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.”
Even though the start of the novel was a bit rocky, I enjoyed the book altogether. The main character was likeable, and you could trace a considerable hint of 'emotional immaturity' in her.
Some of the actions in the novel were so unusual for a woman of her age, but that just made the novel more interesting.
By the end, I had a lump in my throat. It appeared too real. After reading 'About the author', it does seem the author wrote about her own life.
Overall, it was an easy, entertaining read and I would surely recommend it.
Thank you, NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with a free copy.
I enjoyed the book a lot and I would surely want to read more works by the author☺ Also, I have written a detailed review in my blog.
This is the first book I've read from Leslie and it was a cute and fun read. It was a little slow in the beginning but picks up shortly after. I liked the story and the characters. I kinda wish the writing was written differently. Sometimes it was hard to understand what was going on but still a cute book.
Thank you Netgalley, the author and publisher for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This book was a fun read and definitely had a few great laughs along the way! This book is about Leah’s life and her sexy handsome but very younger neighbor! Lol Leah hates thong underwear almost as much as she hates being middle-aged trying to stay relevant in her job! But when she unexpectedly purchases a gun it’s enough to make her consider an act of terrorism at a certain lingerie store LOL her shrink and her mother want her to get married, The neighborhood drug dealer wants to get her in bed, and the girl across the street wants revenge for stealing her boyfriend! But Leah and her gun have a different path to follow! Like I said, This book was definitely a cute, funny read it dug into quite a few heavy topics at times and was an all around ok book just not my preferred type of book! Thank you Netgalley and the publishers for sharing this book with me!
Absolutely could not get into this book. The style it was written in made it impossible to get a true story out of. Also if you want to make fun of people I suggest not doing so of the gun crowd. I mean, unless you think the cops protect you with glitter and sparkles.
Brilliantly funny read, a fresh and original character. This is a great entertaining read, full of hijinks and unbelievable situations that will have you crying with laughter, need to laugh or smile the. Pick this up
Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion
This book was good It took me a minute to really get into it but when I finally did I didn’t want to put it down
