Clover Hendry is ready to do what she wants and tell everyone what she really thinks of them, at least for one day. Clover is a married mother of two working in the TV industry, and she has had it. She done with being a people pleaser and done being taken advantage of. She takes one day to herself and lets loose, what could possibly go wrong?

“Ferris Bueller’s Day Off”, but our protaganist is a perimenopausal 46 year old woman who needs to say NO to people for once. This book was not the fun romp I thought it was going to be though I did enjoy it very much. I expected more madcap adventures ala “Ferris”, but Clover really gets back at some people that have wronged her in the past. Some of her antics seemed mean spirited and even criminal but I can still see why she would do them. She is just done with the world right now, we would all like to do what she did. I know some readers will have a problem with all the antics that she pulls, but I decide to treat it like a fantasy “what if” read. The one issue I had with the book was the lack of comeuppance Clover received. Sometimes apologies don’t solve everything. Overall I had a pretty good time with this book and would recommend to woman this age in order to live vicariously through Clover, even if just for a day.

Thank you NetGalley and Putnam for my ARC.
