Summary

I'm absolutely fine but I slightly need to pee, I followed the road less travelled and now I don't know where the hell I am, I may bleed to death shaving my legs, my soul aches, another week has ended without me becoming accidentally rich, I just put my keys in the fridge, unexpected object in the bagging area, I'll have a café mocha vodka Valium latte to go please, where's my phone? My anxieties have anxieties, no...not like that - here, I'll do it, do I have to do everything? WTF?

Is it just me? We gnaw on that, don't we? Is it just me? Well, look around. Look at the rage, the resolution, the 'hear me roar', the panic, the power, the chin hairs, the shame, the empathy, the conversation, the sheer potential.

Welcome to Midulthood. A place where we recognise that we are all more alike than we are unalike. Of course it's not just you. If we're not in it together, we're not in it at all....

From sex (What Could Possibly Go Wrong) to self-image (Does This Straightjacket Make Me Look Fat?), I'm Absolutely Fine is a wry look at real life, real wisdom and real information framed in fun.

Like Listening to Two Friends in a state of banter

Very enjoyable listen, like listening to and participating in friendly banter. Very relatable and funny and reassuring.

Should Warn! Strong Pelvic Floor Required!!

I have never laughed so much! Mainly because I could relate to so much of this book! Does also discuss serious topics but in a forgiving way that says it's okay, it's normal! I will listen to this again. Love that Annabel and Emilie narrated it themselves as it then comes to life in the tone that they meant it.

Have recommended to my sisters and friends (all around the Midult age!).

Thank you ladies, I highly recommend this read!

Very entertaining and relatable!

This is not a book that will have useful instructions but this is a book that will make you feel like you belong. That all women go through the same things and fight the same battles regardless of our social status and personal circumstances. It's very refreshing to read a book that doesn't tell you to put a smile on your face and keep pushing while falling apart inside. However the best part is that it does that without being patronising and convincing you to compromise on any part of your life. Be strong when you need to and just be you the rest of the time. Not the cheerful or the very best version of yourself but just simply 'you'. Great read that definitely helped to put things in perspective.
