Flying Solo
by Linda Holmes
Having gotten married after 40 and with no kids by choice, I *so* wish this book had existed 10 years ago. The characters are charming and engaging-and I can’t remember the last book I read where it’s literally fine that the main character chooses to remain unmarried and enjoys their own space. And that the main character is a size 18 without it being a big deal-it’s just nice to have a lead character who isn’t fighting her own corporeal existence-she’s smart and sexy and absolutely lovable.
I liked the cozy mystery aspect and the hijinks that follow. Linda Holmes has a gift for writing big and small feelings, and of the experience of caring for and being cared for by others. Her books are a safe place - where there’s anger and disappointment, love and compassion, hellos and goodbyes. And some amazingly corny jokes. I love the corny jokes.
I’m grateful to Libro.fm for the advanced listening copy, especially because Julia Whelan is the perfect narrator for this story.
