Description

After thirty-four years of just letting life happen to her, Paula Tenenbaum's mundane existence was suddenly interrupted. It was bad enough to be fired from her job because she was "average", but on that same day, her boyfriend also dumped her for being "un-dynamic." Somehow, someway Paula needed to make a change. But before she could figure out what her first step should be, her scheming neighbor Larry tapped into her silent desperation and dreams and challenged everything that she believed about herself. At first Paula was skeptical and scared, but quickly, she realized that she had nothing to lose, as she donned the persona of the successful, and vibrant individual that she had always dreamed of being, navigating thru business, colorful personalities and the people that she had idolized from afar. Written with sharp humor, and huge personality, Paula Takes A Risk is the hilarious story about the metamorphosis of Paula Tenenbaum, who naively enters into an adventure that changes her life. This is a story certain to strike a chord in anyone who secretly desires change, but is afraid to make it.

Advance Praise

A gem of a book! March 12, 2012 By Caren Buksbaum Format:Kindle Edition I really enjoyed this book - Paula speaks to any woman who's ever been stuck and not sure how to get un-stuck. The characters are real, and I found myself loving them, hating a few, and cheering for Paula throughout all her adventures. Even better, this book is laugh out loud funny - Ms. Sherman is a great writer and her unique and sly sense of humor infuses every sentence. A gem, and I hope this book gets the recognition it deserves. And the ending? Let's just say "yippee!"
