Is this the best worst day of her life?
Once, Grace Adams was poised for great things. Now, she barely attracts a second glance as she strides down the street carrying her daughter's sixteenth birthday cake.
But behind the scenes, Grace's life is in freefall. Her husband is divorcing her. Her daughter has banned her from her birthday party. And Grace has just abandoned her car in bumper-to-bumper traffic.
Because Grace Adams has finally had enough. She's sick of being overlooked and underappreciated, and she's particularly tired of being polite. She's about to set off on a journey to rediscover who she is, and confront the secret that has torn her family apart.
What is that secret? You're about to find out . . .

Did not finish.

I wasn’t able to finish this book so my review is based on the 4 hours I was able to get through.

That said, from what I gleaned Grace Adams had indeed at some point been amazing. However, mostly what I heard in my 4 hours was Grace being pretty irritating and her constant stream of chaotic consciousness became quite wearing after a while.

I may have missed out on a wonderful ending, I’ll never know! But by then I was too ‘over’ Grace and her family to bother sticking around to find out.

Brilliant!

Beautifully told about difficult feelings when your child becomes an adolescent and communication between you suddenly becomes challenging. I think all parents who have experienced this transition will be able to relate. Warm story about how we can lose ourselves, but also find our inner strength again
