See what happens when empty nest syndrome and retirement are taken to their “Nth degree.” The exchanges between the main character and her neighbors make this work into a light-hearted romp. Diane spins a great humorous tale filled with comic believability laced with a healthy dose of outlandish circumstances.
Despite the humorous, I think McGyver is also giving us a lesson about aging, family, and society in general without a heavy hand. These more serious matters are delivered via subtext.
McGyver’s professional prose style makes for an easy and enjoyable read. Especially when she uses her language skills to deliver clever wordplay quips. The novella is free of typographical and formatting errors, and is well edited, which is quite a relief in today’s indie market.
A perfect quick read! I’m giving this one five stars *****

Hi Dinae, it’s my pleasure to give a well deserved review. The review was also copied and pasted on Amazon and Goodreads. 🙂
I purchased the novella a while ago, but I’m still catching up after the 1,200 mile move.
