5.0 out of 5 stars
An unexpectedly funny book from a drama book Queen, Dec 7 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Midlife Mischief (Hardcover)
Midlife Mischief (called Mrs. Hartley and the Growth Centre in the UK) is very much a departure from Gregory's other novels... it is set in the modern day, fluffy in content, and very funny... whereas most of her books are set in the past, super serious, and very dramatic. Midlife Mischief tells the story of Alice Hartley, a woman who reluctantly admits her forty two years, puts up with her pompous professor husband, and generally stifles all her needs and wants in a gracious feminine way. Then she finds out her husband is cheating on her and wants to leave her... and Alice decides to stop trying to make everyone else happy. She seduces one of her husband's students, gets a house, and starts to liberate her repressed friends from the shackles of modern womnahood... a little unrealisitic, but very witty and grand as a piece of escapism!

how's your life force going!, April 1 2000
By sallyann - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Midlife Mischief (Hardcover)
Great quick read! A wife discovers that her professor husband is cheating on her with one of his students so she decides to get her own back! She grabs the first available toy boy, and seizes the opportunity to strengthen her life force and liberate all her friends along the way.Extremely witty, gotta love good old Aunt Sarah who seems to have a terribly strong life force, despite her 90 odd years. A treat to read in between Philippa Gregory's other books!
Listmania!
