F*cked at 40 by Tova Leigh

“I was bored, angry, tired and sad. I felt all alone yet I had nothing to complain about. I had a good job, a husband who as far as I could tell wasn’t shagging his assistant, three children who apart from being the occasional assholes were pretty good kids; a house, a dog and everything else we are told as little girls we should aspire to. But inside, I was growing restless. I was sick of having the same dull conversations about meal plans and kid-friendly holidays. I was frustrated with having the same married sex I’d been having for the past seven years, or not having any sex at all. I didn’t want to be looked at as just a ‘mom’. I wanted to be desired, to make someone’s hair stand on end and go crazy for me. I didn’t want to live by some label that didn’t represent me. I looked at my messy SUV after my yoga class one morning and I wanted to vomit on it all. I panicked, thinking about how I am slowly approaching middle age and the menopause and I wondered how many years do I have left of being ‘f**ckable’ before everything starts going downhill?” F*cked at 40 is a funny, raw and empowering mid-life crisis. Tova Leigh takes the reader along on her journey of rediscovering her identity after motherhood, encouraging women to break free from society’s expectations. This paperback edition includes a hilarious new chapter on Tova's life in lockdown, revealing how vibrators didn't just add a zing but also provided an income that kept food on the table

"Tova’s book is funny, entertaining and relatable. A must read for any Mum!"
“The way she talks about her body, her relationship with her body, seizing the day ultimately and just living life. I found it really refreshing.”
"Buy it, have a read of it, it's good fun."
"... the best thing is you don't have to be 40 (or f*cked) to enjoy it!"
"You don't have to be a mum to read it, you don't need to be 40 to read it, you just need to read it!"
"Hilarious, funny, raw, intellectual, engaging, witty read, this book is for you"
"It's about love, relationships, happiness, motherhood, it's acceptance of who you are and the age you are and age is just a number."
"A funny, honest account of motherhood and ageing that women from all walks of life will relate to."
Tova Leigh began her successful blog 'My Thoughts About Stuff' in 2016 as a way to talk about parenting, body image, and being free of boundaries. As in her blog, in this, her first book, she talks about her life beyond motherhood, and the challenges that women face as they try to uncover who they are in the world. Tova's up-front, humorous, and honest message has earned her a loyal global following.
