Midlife -- it's a four-letter word...if you're a really bad speller. But it's also extremely funny if you look at it right...or if you sleep through as much of it as possible. -- from Journal of a... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Christie Gabour Atwood gives an enlightening and hilarious view into midlife and the humor. This book is written as a one year journal and gives the reader many insights into a normal life and the struggles to get through daily life.

Passages in the book are side splitting and funny, while others will tug at your heart strings. As you read, how many of these things have you done? How many of these things have you seen others do? Does it help you understand what others are going through? Whether you are going through midlife or are heading toward midlife and for people who have been through these turbulent years, you should pick up this book. Midlife isn't the end - it is a humorous interlude. Every one goes through this time - how will you face midlife?

I really enjoyed this book. It's light, funny, and the kind of book that makes you glance over your shoulder hoping that no one realizes that you do the same silly things the author just wrote about. And just when you're rolling in the aisles... then she hits you with one of those moments that makes you feel all warm inside. Buy this book - for yourself, and for everyone you know who only goes to the health club when they've forgotten how bad the last time was, or who hides their Barry Manilow records.
A fun read

Not the most intellectually stimulating book out there, but I suppose that wasn't its intention! A very fun diary of a woman's midlife crisis. Equally funny and relatable, it was great fun to read. I couldn't put it down until the very end! This is a gem by Atwood and I recommend it as a quick read to middle-aged ladies with a good sense of humor. Definitely worth the small amount of money for a lot of smiles.
