More confessions of a forty-something f##k up / by Potter, Alexandra,author.;
There is no magical land you finally arrive at where everything is figured out, fixed and sorted. Life, like us, is a sum of moving parts, and if we're lucky, we get to keep f**king up, figuring it out and laughing in the face of it all. Nell's back. Her life still isn't going to plan. And she's still asking the big questions and getting none of the answers. Like, for example: 1. Why is falling in love so easy, but staying in love so hard? 2. What do you do when your friendships are put to the ultimate test? 3. Can we ever really live in the moment and leave the past behind? 4. When everything goes tits up, do you fall apart or jump on a plane to LA with Cricket (an eighty-something widow and your BFF)? 5. And when all else fails, will celebrity-scented candles, smashed avocados and Instagram filters save us?
