Woman Last Seen in Her Thirties

A Novel

By: Camille Pagán

Narrated by: Amy McFadden

From bestselling author Camille Pagán comes a hilarious and hopeful story about a woman on the verge of a nervous breakthrough.

At fifty-three, Maggie Harris has a good marriage and two mostly happy children. Perpetually anxious, she’s also accumulated a list of semi-reasonable fears: falling air conditioners, the IRS, identity theft, skydiving, and airbag recalls. But never once did Maggie worry that her husband of nearly thirty years would leave her.

On the day Adam walks out the door, everything that makes Maggie secure goes with him. Only then does she realize that while she’s been busy caring for everyone else, she’s become invisible to the world—and to herself.

Maggie cautiously begins to rebuild her life with a trip to Rome, a new career, and even a rebound romance. But when a fresh crisis strikes and an uncertain future looms, she must decide: How much will she risk to remain the woman she’s just become?

Critic reviews

"Amy McFadden emotionally narrates the story of a woman's struggle to find herself after her divorce.... McFadden does such an excellent job of transforming herself into Maggie that the character comes across as fully authentic. All the emotions are perfectly depicted in this performance, and listeners won't be disappointed." (AudioFile)

Liked the plot, but not the story

Maggie seemed to be self aware but dishonest about her feelings. She and her ex weren't honest with each other. I wondered how her marriage lasted as long as it did.

Lovely read, well written. Loved it!

Not often a book grabs me from the first chapter, but I identified with Maggie and we could be friends! The book speaks emotionally factual about divorce and the crazy experiences we have while healing. Delightful narration once again by Amy McFadden. Loved it.

I love the funny narrator

I think you’ll all like
Modern woman transforming.

Lovely and compelling

Camille Pag'an does a wonderful job capturing the roller coaster of conflicting emotions that come with change, age, heartbreak, and learning who we are when we are no longer in charge of others. The narration is beautifully executed.

Loved this book

Maggie went through a lot to get to where she ended. Her children & husband had been her world. Now she need to see if she needed to stay that way or venture out in the world to see what more there was out there for her. In the end she made a decision that was best for her while still being there for the ones who loved her back. Great book, had me laughing & crying.
