Thought I knew where this book was going. Then in the last 40 pages it whalloped me right in the gut and I blubbered like a baby.

Sequel to Welcome to my Planet. Seemed to have less energy than the first one, and I felt slightly drained and depressed after finishing it.

Admittedly, I enjoyed this book because my life situation parallels Shannon's in many ways. I read her previous book years ago and loved it. This one did not disappoint. A very fun read!

Shannon Olson writes about being a single woman in her thirties, living in the Twin Cities, finding herself among the last of her friends to buy a house, have babies and "settle down." You might say I found this book pretty goddamn relatable.

As in Welcome to My World, Olson's voice is simple, vulnerable and revealing. It's like peeking inside your friend's diary.

Felt like quick, amusing reading through most of it, which is a good set up for the end. It gets better the more I think about it.
