I really liked "Revenge of the Middle Aged Woman", so, when I saw Buchan's follow up, I couldn't wait to read it. It didn't read quite as easily as "Revenge" but, it's still a good story. Initially, it was hard to sympathize with Minty--she seems to be whining about being the second wife and how unfairly Nathan's friends & family treat her through the first few chapters. As the story progresses, she begins to grow and mature & I found myself actually rooting for her. I thought the ending was a good one in that she gets the family that she wanted so much.
