Acerca de esta escucha

A laugh-out-loud spin on the realities, perks, opportunities, and inevitable courses of midlife.

Laurie Notaro has proved everyone wrong: she didn’t end up in rehab, prison, or cremated at a tender age. She just went gray. At past fifty, every hair’s root is a symbol of knowledge (she knows how to use a landline), experience (she rode in a car with no seat belts), and superpowers (a gray-haired lady can get away with anything).

Though navigating midlife is initially upsetting—the cracking noises coming from her new old body, receiving regular junk mail from mortuaries—Laurie accepts it. And then some. With unintentional abandon, she shoplifts a bag of russet potatoes. Heckles a rude driver from her beat-up Prius. And engages in epic trolling on Nextdoor.com. That, says Laurie, is the brilliance of growing older. With each passing day, you lose an equivalent amount of fear.

And the #1 New York Times bestselling author has never been so fearlessly funny as she is in this empowering, candid, and enlightening memoir about living life on the other side of fifty.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Narrator Hillary Huber’s winsome performance grounds the author’s raucous humor and candid takes on the life of a 50-something woman. Huber intimately conveys Notaro’s observation that women somehow become invisible once they reach midlife.… These irreverent, sometimes profane, narratives strike a universal chord that will have listeners rolling with laughter at Notaro’s escapades, while also nodding their heads in agreement. This wickedly fun look at the adventures of aging should appeal to Notaro’s many fans and to readers who enjoy Jen Mann, Annabelle Gurwitch, and Jessi Klein.”Library Journal

“Witty and full of sarcastic energy, the author fearlessly tackles what it means to get old…Unplugged, refreshingly off the hook, and consistently entertaining.”Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“Notaro’s fans who’ve aged right alongside her will feel like they’re on a call with a best friend.”Publishers Weekly

I liked her tone and approach as well as her honest look at how middle aged women are treated and how they feel. Definitely a 5 star rating for this book!
Overall 5, Story 5, Performance 5

I could relate to so much in this book.

Oh my goodness! Ms. Notaro crept inside my mind (a wholly dangerous affair) and plucked my very thoughts to share in her book! Thankfully, she put them in HER words, using her unparalleled wit and style. This is a wonderfully bawdy look at finally being able to walk past the feminine protection aisle in the store and thumb your nose at it! It also shares all the glory (and not) that comes with THAT time of life. I have never laughed so hard looking back at times in my life that were so trying until Ms. Notaro put her spin on everything. Holy COW; you mean I’m not the ONLY one who did/experienced that?!? Very encouraging and uplifting. Thank you so much; I really needed this!

Ms. Hillary Huber narrated flawlessly. She put the snark in all the right places, and the calm sweetness where it, too, belonged.

This is a powerful combination of author and narrator. I highly recommend a read/listen (I did both via WhisperSync)—especially if you are one of “US.” 😉

I’m 53, born in 1970, genx through and through and I can 100% relate to this book! I love being invisible, but I’m a hardcore introvert. Great book!

Amazingly real listen.

Brilliant

Funny then a bit harsh and self serving. A lot of other baggage like weight. Ended on softer tone with dedication to husband with MS and dying pet. No real closure at e d.

I laughed till I almost peed my pants! The story where she wanted to charge her husband per question, total brilliance and 1000% true. My significant other likes to think that Google was never invented. Loved every minute, and the mom whose wishes to remain anonymous.

Best listen in quite sometime and so relatable!

Didn’t love the abrupt ending, but otherwise was thoroughly entertained. From here on in, I am a MAW!
