    Insulting to Audience Its Trying to Reach
    I read/ listen to about 5 books a month and belong to 2 book clubs. Rarely do I not finish a book. This one I had to put down about a third of the way into it. The run-on descriptions are distracting and the jokes are just not funny. I selected this book as I am the demographic the author describes and wishes to have as her reader. I can certainly laugh at myself and the aging process. But this was demeaning and just "silly". Maybe she should try writing for a sit-com. With a pile of TBR on my nightstand, I just don't want to waste time on this.

    Disappointing
    I was hoping for a light diversion when I undertook the job of reading this manuscript. What I found was at times a tedious and disjointed often rambling account of the author's life. It was at times humorous. But, the subject matter too often was out of my range of knowledge. Maybe being from the east coast put me at a disadvantage. In any event, I just did not like The Madwoman and the Rhoomba.
