O knihe

This sequel to A Girl Like You continues the story of still single Jessica Gabriel exploring her life choices by crashing her ex's beach wedding, learning dog yoga (aka doga), getting a tattoo, declining an offer from a potential FWB, taking water aerobics and falling on her ass while cross-country skiing. When her 22-year-old son moves out to join his father in a nomadic life, Jess suddenly has an empty nest. She relives the good old days when her kids were young and wonders how she ever got to a place like this. Jessica takes on a second job as an Uber driver, where she meets a "lumberjane" (female version of a lumberjack), a much older woman with a scorching sex drive, and a clown who creates X-rated balloon sculptures, among others. Fortified by blueberry scones, Chardonnay, and her fave takeout "Bucket of Spaghetti," as well as the continued support from her adult kids, new friend Nadine and old buddy Eddie, Jessica's journey leads her to understand she is, after all, in a very good place.
