A new novel from the popular women’s fiction<br />

author of My Favorite Midlife Crisis (Yet).<br />

As Judith Soo Jin Raphael’s fiftieth birthday nears, the half-Korean,<br />

half-Jewish cellist’s life is in chaos. Her first love, who dumped her<br />

decades ago, returns to dazzle her. Her long-absent father arrives out of<br />

the blue, turning her mother into a love-struck flirt. And her mentor at<br />

the Maryland Philharmonic orchestra falls seriously ill. No wonder Judith<br />

develops a paralyzing case of stage fright.<br />

But she’s convinced that happiness will arrive any day now. She’s just got<br />

to hold on tight during this midlife shake-up...<br />

Praise for My Favorite Midlife Crisis (Yet):<br />

face-lifts.” —New York Times bestselling author Ben Mezrich<br />

“Devens has created three warm and witty characters that I’d love to<br />

have as my friends.” —USA Today bestselling author Rebecca York<br />

“A wise and witty debut.” —Publishers Weekly<br />
