I Feel Bad About My Neck

Wildly funny

Joanna Trollope

An uncanny ability to sound like your best friend, whoever you are

The New York Times

What's refreshing about Ephron is that she refuses to entertain any illusions about the terrible fate that awaits us. What's great about her is that she makes the truth about life so funny when it should be so grim

Sunday Times

Few will troll these droll selections without being charmed to bits... Recall how hard it was last year to find a present for Mother's Day that wasn't yet one more box of chocolate? Remember this book. You'll thank me. It's perfect

Lionel Shriver, Guardian

Nobody does it funnier

Maureen Lipman

One of the smartest, slickest looks at being a woman growing older... a bit like having your own clever film narrator's voice accompanying you through the sticky bits of life: the grief of a sagging neck, the joy of a good handbag, the unremitting loss of a best friend and the effort of facing up to no longer being 50

Good Housekeeping

Lots of good jokes, and a wonderfully amusing read

Virginia Ironside

Had me in complete fits of laughter

Judy Astley

Laugh-out-loud

Glamour

Wry and amusing... brave and funny

Washington Post

The key to Ephron's humour is likeability... she knows that the point of writing personal essays is to make readers say not "This woman is crazy" but "So you feel like that too, huh?"

The Oldie

The book that most influenced me... It triggered me to write my own book, and ask myself questions about who I was, what kind of woman I am and how the world had shaped me.

LILY ALLEN, Guardian

So bold and so vulnerable at the same time. I don’t know how she did it.

Few will troll these droll selections without being charmed to bits . . . Recall how hard it was last year to find a present for Mother's Day that wasn't yet one more box of chocolate? Remember this book. You'll thank me. It's perfect.

Lionel Shriver, Guardian

Laugh-out-loud.

Wry and amusing...brave and funny.

Washington Post

Executed with overall sharpness and panache...[Nora Ephron] retains an uncanny ability to sound like your best friend, whoever you are.

New York Times

Wickedly witty and astute...reflecting the perspective of an aging- but still crackling sharp - cultural scribe.

Boston Globe

A barrage of shareable anecdotes, humorous self-deprecation and womanly bravado...[a] gatherum of hard and funny truths.

New York Times Book Review

As funny and poignant as ever.

Ms

Use this wryly romantic book as a guide to musing about mortality, or just curling up in your empty nest.

O: Oprah Magazine

Wildly funny and, altough extremely accurate (at least for most of us), not remotely depressing...the perfect antidote to a dark month.
