Publisher's summary
Lu and her friends are all hitting 50 and have no intention of learning to knit. Feisty and fabulous, this foursome is determined to grow old disgracefully.
Join them on their journey across the desert and across the years to their home town and a school reunion, in this audio drama from the international best-selling author of The Bride Stripped Bare.
As for Lu - recently divorced, living with three demanding kids, always awaiting promotion at work - well Lu really believes she’s reached the age of invisibility. Love must be over for her. Or is it?
Laughing, sometimes crying, ruthlessly honest and often downright filthy, Lu, Chip, Bianca and Flic share secrets while the desert roads turn treacherous....
This audiobook contains mature themes, and listener discretion is advised.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,387
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,714
The plane is jam-packed. Every seat is taken. So of course the flight is delayed! Flight attendant Allegra Patel likes her job—she’s generally happy with her life, even if she can’t figure out why she hooks up with a man she barely speaks to—but today is her twenty-eighth birthday. She can think of plenty of things she’d rather be doing than placating a bunch of grumpy passengers.

1975 is a time of change in America. The Vietnam War is ending. Muhammad Ali is fighting Joe Frazier. And in the small town of Monta Clare, Missouri, girls are disappearing. When the daughter of a wealthy family is targeted, the most unlikely hero emerges—Patch, a local boy, who saves the girl, and, in doing so, leaves heartache in his wake. Patch and those who love him soon discover that the line between triumph and tragedy has never been finer. And that their search for answers will lead them to truths that could mean losing one another.

I loved this one!
So exactly what I did not know that I needed. A great time! Definitely recommend this for women 40 and up, there are just some thoughts that I didn't even have till I turned 40...this author captures that headspace perfectly.

Not for Your Average Reader!
This book was theatre! Disclaimer, I’m an American who loves Australian television/movies , I love theatre and I also love when my audio book is narrated by multiple people. I was expecting a frothy romp with maybe some poignant moments, but this book was windy like a river and took us into soul survival mode. This book may not be for the average reader who may proclaim “I couldn’t even get through the first chapter..” but, if you’ve travelled the world a bit, don’t mind an accent that isn’t yours and crave an adventure that starts with a toe dip and ends with that clutch of fingertips on the mountain.. this book is the surprise for you.

Invisible women's society
I very much enjoyed this performance which was more of a pod cast than a book. I related to so much in this story and I sure other women of a certain age will as well. Initially because of the way imthe story is performed I had a little trouble following it. I am so happy that I stuck with it; I was not disappointed and I could have continued listening...perhaps to a sequel?

Took a while to get into this, but worth it
I had a hard time with this book, because there were numerous protagonists, and it was hard to keep them straight. The similarity of some of the female voices added to this frustration. I nearly gave up, but must say that the characters were so real and likable that I persisted, and was rewarded in the end. I liked all the flaws and imperfections, and that these did not detract from the characters' mutual appreciation in the end.

Different.......
Never have the words "This audiobook contains mature themes, and listener discretion is advised." ever been more true. This was like an Australian Sex and the City. They talked about anything and everything. I would love to listen to this again just to see how many times the F bomb is dropped.
This was different. It's like we were hiding in the closet listening in on someone's life. The kissing sounds were just a wee bit over the top. Let's not do that the next time we record one of these books. 😁
This is a hard review to write. i didn't really care for this book(?) at all at first. There just wasn't any substance to it. But then when they are all in the desert, it started getting interesting. I had to see how things turned out. I ended up thinking it was good. It just wasn't mind blowing.
I do recommend it though for a quick entertaining listen. I listened through Audible Escape.
Narrators: they all were great. Perfect for their own roles.
