Refreshing and Honest

It's refreshing to read something written by a woman of a certain age when you happen to be a woman of a certain age yourself. Michele Weldon's book of essays, 'Act Like You're Having a Good Time' are poignant and realistic as well as making you laugh out loud at times.

I enjoyed the author's honesty and her reflections on where she is in her life now and how she got there and there was much to empathise with. I particularly enjoyed her discussion around art classes, swimming and what she wore to a friend's wedding. 

This is not only an enjoyable read but also a thought-provoking one.

Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
