Netgalley Reviewer; "I found Midlife Holiday unexpectedly profound, maybe because I turn 50 myself this year." Netgalley Reviewer ; "It's a life affirming story but it's also a story about getting old, losing the sense of who you are and finding it again."

Netgalley Reviewer ;"The author handles it all beautifully with a well-written and entertaining novel!"
