The Silver Ladies of Penny Lane: An absolutely hilarious feel-good novel | Dee MacDonald
2 posts | 1 read
Dee MacDonalds books are so heart-warming. They make you laugh-out-loud one minute, and then have you crying the next theyre really emotional and tug at the heart strings but are fun, life-affirming reads! Stardust Book Reviews Tess and Orla have been best friends throughout most of their adult lives. So when life gave them lemons and their loved ones let them down, they pooled their resources and bought a dressmakers shop on the corner of Penny Lane. And theyve been doing just fine ever since. But one day, while studying her tired eyes and shapeless figure in the mirror, sixty-two-year-old Tess realised that she doesnt want her life to be just fine anymore. She wants it to be extraordinary. For as long as she can remember shes put everyone else first. Now she wants to rediscover herself and experience the kind of whirlwind adventure that will have the power make her smile when shes confined to the armchair of a retirement home. With the encouragement of fun-loving and quirky Orla, Tess joins an over-the-hill dating agency and the two friends book a singles cruise around the Mediterranean. And thats when their adventure of a lifetime really begins A totally uplifting, heart-warming, hilarious page turner about embracing the moment, learning to love again and the joy of second chances. Perfect for fans of The Kicking the Bucket List and The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry. What readers are saying about Dee MacDonald: OMG!

I skimmed the last third of this book. The story was cute at first, but then got very repetitive and predictable. I couldn‘t wait for it to end. Not a book I would recommend. On to something better!

SilversReviews Love the photo!! 5y
