Woman Last Seen in Her Thirties by Camille Pagán
2.0
Yet another note to self to stop choosing books for book club reads simply because they are free (or Kindle Unlimited).
Yet again another disappointingly formulaic story. Woman dumped by husband, woman (through a series of ridiculously unlikely events) rediscovers her inner goddess. Woman shows world what she is capable of.
There's the inevitable breakdown, selfish husband/good child and not so good child/getting into scrapes/trip somewhere abroad/new man.
You could just pick up any one of these mid-life crisis books, change the names and places and put it back on the shelf for the next unsuspecting person (ie me) to hope that this time, maybe, there'd be an interesting twist.
It's got 2 stars because I finished it and it didn't give me a headache.
