Synopsis

A frank, funny, insightful guide to navigating our middle years now that ageing has become an ongoing bush tucker trial in which women are pitted against each other to determine who can look most like their 29 year-old-self. Covers topics that women obsess about, from the totally superficial – Should I wax my moustache? Am I too old for a leather jacket? – to the bigger issues – am I having the right amount of sex? Why do I hate my best friend? Is there a cure for mid-life grumpiness? This book is like having a conversation with your sharpest, most trusted, least smug girlfriend.

Shane Watson is an author and journalist who met and married a man in her forties. She is, in other words, the statistic defying exception to the rule; a beacon of hope for single women in the thirty-five plus category who want to find Mr Right and not just Mr Gigantic Compromise.
