I tried to like this, but I just couldn't get into it. The intentional confusion of two similarly-named characters at the beginning (which is later explained) did not help. I get the MFC is a 40-something female who feels like she is pulled in a lot of different directions, but her emotions were like a rollercoaster...again, like she said, maybe it's perimenopause - maybe it's her inner self. I don't know. A lot happened in a short amount of time, which generally I like, but in this book I felt like I was missing something(s). For example, who was following her in the other car (besides the other Angie)? Am I supposed to care about her kids & husband, because she doesn't seem to? I can understand that she is tough & is struggling, but there are a lot of other authors I have read who are more capable of combining struggles with humor and paranormal and sometimes smexy time, all with the mid-life MFC. Thank you for the ARC opportunity NetGalley and the publisher.
This was a strong sequel in the Forty Something Fury series, it had that element that I was looking for and enjoyed how it continued the story and the characters had that feel that I was looking for. I enjoyed the way Paige Andrews and Bryon Cahill wrote this and am excited for more.
I really loved the idea of a mature female main character. As a woman in my 30s she made the experience feel more real and relatable instead of reading about a young adult in early 20s. I also very much enjoyed her sassiness and attitude while dealing with all the issues she had to face. I enjoyed reading this book a lot and can’t wait to see what her and her strange friends get up to next.
