Rounding up to a four. The books starts out in a way I’m thinking or going to be cute. It’s anything but. It’s arduous, and I was annoyed for a big part of it because it seemed like everything was being dragged out too slowly between the three timelines. But when evicting was finally revealed, I realized it needed to take ask this time.

The main character in Fran Littlewood's debut Amazing Grace Adams is a woman at her very wit's end. Her marriage is over, her teenage daughter hates her, and her perimenopausal brain has had enough. Grace's life needs a complete overhaul if she can just get things together. This is a book about being in the middle of your life and figuring out the second half must be done differently. For fans of Where'd You Go, Bernadette? and Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine.
