Anniki Sommerville's How to Be a Boss at Ageing is a laugh out loud look at aging in the modern era with plenty of anecdotal stories from her own experiences. Though it is at time repetitive (I GET it, you're a feminist), it's really relatable for any of us in middle age who are exhausted (oh those young kids!) and feel like we have to be everything and do everything at all times. I read it in a couple of days and chuckled in more than one place (ok, a lot of places), and there are plenty of spots I squirmed uncomfortably in my seat because what Sommerville was talking about hit a little too close to home.

Thanks so much to NetGalley and Thread Books for this review copy.

This is laugh-out-loud funny! As a woman in her 40s, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the humor and candor throughout. Spot-on for many of the thoughts & worries & oddities running through my head too. Great gift idea for my girl group & book club readers.

An informative guide on ageing. :) It's told in a fun and amusing way with lots of anecdotes. Very useful but a fun read at the same time. I enjoyed reading it.

An amusing guide to the realities of ageing. The author shares her journey and compares what she was like at both eighteen and forty seven. Thank you to netgalley and the publishers for letting me have an advance reading copy. I found it excellent in the observations made by the author.
