Publisher Description

Exhilarating short stories of women breaking free from convention Every now and then, right in the middle of an ordinary day, a woman rebels, kicks up her heels, and commits a small act of liberation. What would you do, if you were going to break out and away? Go AWOL from Weight Watchers and spend an entire day eating every single thing you want–and then some? Start a dating service for people over fifty to reclaim the razzle-dazzle in your life–or your marriage? Seek comfort in the face of aging, look for love in the midst of loss, find friendship in the most surprising of places? Imagine that the people in these wonderful stories–who do all of these things and more–are asking you: What would you do, if nobody was looking?

"This is a fun read--told completely from the perspectives of different women of various ages with an array of life experiences. I always enjoy short stories that cover a lot in as few pages as possible. "

    " A lot of good stories in this book and one or two that I didn't care for. Really liked the ones about dieting, I could really relate to those. My favorite was the last one in the book, I really found the characters in that particular story so likeable. "

    " The title of this book intrigued me and it was good although it was written for an older age group. It did give me some interesting insights into overweight people and old people. So not a complete waste of time..... "
