My Ex-Life (McCauley) - Book Reviews

Book Reviews
An irresistible doozy of a plot. With My Ex-Life, a heartwarming comedy of manners about second chances and starting afresh, he has pretty much outdone himself…. McCauley fires off witticisms like a tennis ace practicing serves…. Warm but snappy, light but smart—and just plain enjoyable.
Helen McAlpin - NPR.org


Wickedly funny…. For all the idiosyncrasies of McCauley’s creations, it’s likely many readers will see aspects of their own lives reflected in these pages.
BookPage


Sweet-but-unsentimental paean to altruism and friendship that gets to the heart of people, be they nice or nasty.… A tender, strikingly ‘true’ story that is warm, clear, and nuanced.
Library Journal


(Starred review) McCauley delights with intimately, often hilariously observed characters and a winking wit that lets plenty of honest tenderness shine through. Readers will love spending time in these pages.
Booklist


When midlife woes descend, a long-divorced couple find their paths merging again.… As always, McCauley's effervescent prose is full of wit and wisdom on every topic.… A gin and tonic for the soul.
