No! I Don't Want to Join a Book Club — Virginia Ironside

A screamingly funny novel about letting go of youth and embracing the sassy curmudgeon within

Marie Sharp is heading toward sixty and is just fine with it. She's already had plenty of excitement in her life: sex and drugs in the freewheeling sixties, career and children, marriage and divorce. Now she's ready to settle into a quiet, blissfully boring routine. No book clubs, Italian classes, gym memberships or bicycle trips across Europe, thank you very much!

She's even sworn off men! But as it turns out, life still has some surprises in store for Marie, including the rekindling of an old flame and a new grandson on the way. Armed with a biting sense of humor, Marie wrestles with a life that refuses to follow her plans -- and may still offer more possibilities than she realizes.
