Let me start by saying that I am not in my forties, but I know what it's like to be defined by your marriage. That said, this book had some good advice and anecdotes about gaining the courage to leave a bad relationship. Unfortunately, it was buried under grammar/spelling errors and poor organization. This book needs a editor to catch the errors (the commas are running rampant), but it could also do with more organization of the ideas and stories. Headlines and call-out boxes would make it feel more like a traditional self-help book and less like a blog serial. I did like the Steps outlined before each chapter, but they would be much better if there were more activities, a quiz or two, etc. Also, a list of resources (websites, numbers, addresses, etc.) would be very helpful for the woman who has no one to call on for assistance. A second edition with some of these errors addressed would earn a four or five star from me.
Overall, an insightful book with encouraging words.

This is a pretty good self-help/motivational book for single women around 40 or over 40. I especially like Chapter Eleven – Not All Men Are Relationship Material. I am sure we have met at least one or two types of these men in the past. That is helpful for single women to avoid a potential bad relationship. I would recommend this book to all single women over 40.

i received this as part of a Goodreads Firstreads promotion in exchange for my honest opinion.
In Praise of Single Women Over 40 by Michelle Mendoza is a great book for those women who are over 40 and need some encouragement. While society might think women over 40 are all washed up, it isn't true, and Michelle offers advise and exercises to help them get through these important years. It's all about confidence in the end, and that is great advice don't you think? Wish it had been proof read.
