Unfortunately, I have not been able to read and review this book.

After losing and replacing my broken Kindle and getting a new phone I was unable to download the title again for review as it was no longer available on Netgalley.

I’m really sorry about this and hope that it won’t affect you allowing me to read and review your titles in the future.

Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity.

She's old enough to be his mother. But she's having too much fun to care...

Alice has always looked young for her age, even with her greying hair and her housewife style. But now that her husband's gone and her daughter is grown, Alice is in desperate need of a new life. So she lets her best friend Maggie transform her into a woman who looks really young.

But the white lies escalate, and soon Alice finds herself with a gorgeous 20-something boyfriend and the dream job she'd briefly had before becoming a full-time mom. For the first time since she was actually twenty-nine, or possibly ever, Alice feels that life is ripe with possibility. But has Alice told one lie too many?

Well written with a good moral lesson rebelling against ageism in all shape and form, Alice wasn’t really my cup of tea, I found her a bit annoying and clingy but the workplace, homestead setting was interesting enough.
An easy to read, lighthearted chick lit novel, with a decent plot.

Right up my street! An intriguing take on ageism and rebellion and, well, a mid life crisis really!! Younger is an entertaining and fun read that has a deep rooted message that women shouldn't be written off after a certain age. An easy and entertaining read.

I loved the message about rebelling against society's asymmetrical ageism that writes off women after the age of 40 - but we have to suspend a lot of disbelief that our 44-year old heroine can pass herself off physically as a twenty-something. With this hook out of the way, we're left with a pretty standard chick-lit rom-com. Cute switch-off reading for sure.
