tajne pod perinou knihy, svietiac si baterkou, a snívala o vášnivých romanciach a cestovaní do ďalekých krajín. Probabil că de aceea podcastul lui Nell, care spune lucrurilor pe nume, are un asemenea succes: pentru că femeile se regăsesc în cuvintele lui Nell despre cum ai tendința de a trage linie și de a calcula doar eșecurile, despre cum te compari mereu cu alții și ieși în dezavantaj, despre faptul că uneori n-ai chef de avocado și yoga ci de băut gin tonic la doză și de stat în pat, și despre cum te întrebi mereu: eu ce naiba fac cu viața mea? PLEASE NOTE: The publication date for Confessions of a Forty-Something F**k- Up has been pushed back to 31st December 2020. It is easy to feel sorry for Nell, but at the same time we want her to develop some resilience and inner strength to rise above it all.

I wonder if I am alone in my feelings on this book or whether there are other women out there who feel the same way as me?Neviem či by som rovno povedala, že má jedinecný zmysel pre humor či sebairóniu, ale tak uznávam, že 4 roky v Británii ma poznačili a tak je to asi skreslené. V tomto prípade, téma veľmi aktuálna a rezonujúca (len teda mi chýbajú kamošky žijúce v okolí Koliby a Slavína, ale tak neprší tu tak často… všetko má svoje plus i mínus). Nell’s life feels like it is going absolutely nowhere fast and the perfect social media feeds she follows makes her feel even worse.

A life affirming, insightful, savvy and meaningful contemporary fiction piece, I am very happy to send my full recommendation to Confessions of a Forty Something by Alexandra Potter. Confessions of a Forty-Something F**k Up by Alexandra Potter will make you laugh, and it might even make you cry.Stačilo povedať toľko, že som sa nedávno rozišla s americkým snúbencom a vrátila sa Londýna, kde chcem začal odznova. And here she Is single, childless, renting a room from the crazy man who tries to leave NO carbon footprint by counting toilet paper squares etc. Savā ziņā šī grāmata ir kā slavenā Amerikas Fereras tēla runa no filmas " Bārbija" par to, kādas ir sabiedrības (un tevis pašas) ekspektācijas un cik reizēm sāpīgi ir tām neatbilst. An editor, Nell secured a job with an old colleague crafting epilogues, and this is how she found a firm friend in Cricket, a newly widowed octogenarian.
