I was hoping I would enjoy this book because it’s written by an older woman, it is about an older woman, and it takes place in Lanark, Ottawa and Montreal. But I found it to be a rather pedestrian experience. I’m not into reliving my past or having regrets over things you can’t change, or having recreational sex. Lulu, the aging actress, found peace and happiness in the beauty of nature, in her family home, surrounded by loving friends and family. Big deal. Tell me something I don’t know. Lulu was a total bore.
