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:
Whilst we could all appreciate the idea behind this book, we didn’t think it was executed as well as it could have been. We felt there were too many ‘events’ crammed into the book, and not enough detail on any. The book also touched on a number of important topics, including menopause, the impact of social media and grief. We found the present tense quite chaotic and difficult to read, however we did enjoy the historical anecdotes more. Overall Amazing Grace Adams averaged 2.5*.
