Amazing Grace Adams
Is this the best worst day of her life?
Once, Grace Adams was poised for great things. Now, she barely attracts a second glance as she strides down the street carrying her daughter’s sixteenth birthday cake.
But behind the scenes, Grace’s life is in freefall. Her husband is divorcing her. Her daughter has banned her from her birthday party. And Grace has just abandoned her car in bumper-to-bumper traffic.
Because Grace Adams has finally had enough. She’s sick of being overlooked and underappreciated, and she’s particularly tired of being polite. She’s about to set off on a journey to rediscover who she is, and confront the secret that has torn her family apart.
What is that secret? You’re about to find out . . .

From the Book Club Meeting:
A bit of a mixed bag in terms of reviews for this meeting. A few members enjoyed the book and found it an easy read, but a lot of us struggled to engage with it and although we could relate to Grace in many ways, we just couldn’t get into the story. We found the jumps between time periods quite confusing. However the book did generate a lot of interesting conversations, ranging from menopause to grief and social media. We did agree that this book would make a good 2-part TV drama.
Overall this book averaged 2.92 stars.
