Somewhere to review books I'm reading without giving away any spoilers!

What a brilliant, fun read! The Golden Gals’ French Adventure by Judy Leigh

Sixty-nine-year-old Fliss has lived a life!

My Review:

These books are brilliant, I've thoroughly enjoyed them all
As older protagonists explore what life has to offer again.
They may be older but despite loneliness and pain
They're braver than ever when adventure comes to call!

Fliss is rich, retired, has a lovely home, too,
But chatting in bars, drinking alcohol and more
She's starting to realise that's not what she's looking for.
Shirl is her cleaner with too much to do!

What happens when these two have a French adventure together?
With friendships, parties, tasty food and much more
This is a read that's a delight to explore.
With encounters to change their lives forever.

For my copy of this book I say thank you
As I share with you this, my honest review.

Synopsis:

A career running her own successful business, a beautiful home, a wardrobe full of designer clothes – Fliss has everything she ever wanted. So why does she feel so lonely?

Sixty-six-year-old Shirl didn’t expect to be looking after a baby again, let alone a grown woman who should know better. But with her daughter Gemma struggling to adapt to motherhood, and her boss Fliss increasingly reliant on Shirl to run her life, Shirl never gets a moment to herself.

Fliss might not be great at life’s chores, but she is great at seizing opportunities, so when the chance for a jaunt to France’s beautiful Brittany comes her way, she decides it’s just what she and Shirl need. And as the sun-soaked town of Plouvannec-Sur-Mer begins to work its magic on the women, they realise there’s another way to live.

From cake-laden patisseries, to joyous local fetes, from food, views and beaches to die for, to a community quick to embrace them, not to mention some rather fine French men for company, perhaps it’s not too late for Fliss and Shirl to embrace a new adventure and look forwards to a totally different future.
