Joan Anderson has so much wisdom and one day I would love to meet her in person. This was a wonderful sequel to A Year By The Sea. I find that as I age, life takes us down different roads which we try to find ourselves through the journey of life. Any woman should pick up Anderson's books. They are a gem to light up your life in the most positive way.

Once again I was inspired and moved by Joan's experiences and her willingness to share them.
She writes
"You can't really know what it is you are supposed to do next unless you depart form the mundane to refire your spirit"
This book will get you started again

Anderson, author of A Year by the Sea, has fallen back into old habits. She is running and gunning and she is not happy. Reflection about her stressful life sends on a short sabbatical where she reconnects with the deepest and most satisfying part of herself again.

I read this one for bookgroup. It was barely okay. It's supposed to encourage mid-life women to make the changes necessary to improve their life. I don't think it said much of anything. My engineering father would say it had a "low signal-to-noise ratio."

I'd like to meet the author and go to one of her workshops. A bit new-age but I love what she was ale to do with her life to get herself back to where she needed to be. The luxury of being able to get away for an extended time - how nice!

I read this book in a day. it is truly inspirational, thought provoking and encourages us as women to look inward and reflect on what matters to us as we age and finish certain chapters in our lives.

If you did not read her first book you would not be able to understand the depth of this book. Repetitive. Dull. A few nuggets. Over all self serving

Decent read, good for self-help for women. Reading a lot of that right now. Makes you want to go for a walk along the beach...

This is a broadly spiritual book for women looking to lead authentic lives. Encourages women to question their roles and the tasks that comprise our days. Lots of ideas to linger over. Very inspiring. A breath of fresh air.

I loved seeing how her life has changed since writing her first book, A Year By The Sea. You need to read her first 2 books before reading this one.

Joan is a wonderful writer and motivator for women. I would love to meet her and go to one of her retreats in Cape Cod!
