Reviews

[Kathy Miner · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ellyn Bache writes with a wit that caused me to laugh out loud at her quirky characters. But her book also provides thought-provoking bits of wisdom on being a 60+ woman today, a parent of grown children who don't conform to your expectations, a grandparent struggling with the appropriate level of involvement in raising grandchildren, and a sister who has a loving but contentious relationship with her sister. Over 50's Singles Night was a perfect antidote to the perils of the pandemic and pervasiveness of dire news.

Over 50’s Singles Night, by Ellyn Bache, is a delightful, can’t put down novel. The characters could live next door! Realistic and uplifting, Ellyn Bache relates the story of sisters who are also working women, mothers and grandmothers. Their individual stories intertwine and diverge in realistic and honest ways. Ellyn Bache has a knack for understanding and bringing to life the human spirit. A wonderful read that I heartily recommend.

A light, delightful read

This is a perfect escape book, about love after 60, sisters and learning to bend. Witty dialogue reminded me of Elinor Lipman.

This was a fun, easy read. I like how the author established strong personalities in the two main female characters. I found it amusing how the author nailed it on the head when it comes to sisters misunderstanding each other. Classic!
