4.0

I really enjoyed this collection of essays about being a woman in your forties. I related and chuckled and one rather poignant and personal essay really hit home and brought me to tears. I found after reading the book that I felt uplifted and quite positive about being 40ish, I’d highly recommend this to anyone feeling a bit wary of this decade.
