Hilarious, poignant, utterly relatable - Confessions of a Forty-Something F*** Up is a must-read for anyone whose life isn't working out quite how they'd planned.

Und kaum ist mal alles gut, kommt ihr das Leben dazwischen!Eigentlich ist Nell Kummer gewohnt: über vierzig, unverheiratet, kinderlos und eine glatte sechs in Selbstoptimierung. Obendrein ohne vorzeigbare Karriere, denn Geld verdient sie ausgerechnet mit dem  Schreiben von Nachrufen. Als sich eines Tages ein Angehöriger über sie beschwert, soll sie dieses Rumpelstilzchen zu ihrem größten Horror persönlich treffen, um die Wogen zu glätten. Zum Glück ist Nells exzentrische, über 80-jährige Freundin Cricket an ihrer Seite, und die wirft so schnell nichts aus der Bahn. In dieser wunderbar witzigen Fortsetzung des Bestsellers 'Je größer der Dachschaden, desto besser die Aussicht' dürfen unsere Lieblingsheldinnen Nell und Cricket wieder viel übers Leben lernen, Katastrophen abwenden und Spaß haben - ganz egal, wie alt sie sind!
