I loved The Change. I remember feeling like β€œYES! A book about badass perimenopausal women discovering their best selves later in life! Plus, superpowersπŸ™Œβ€ I decided to start writing in my forties and am working on my first novel. Loved the inspiring message in this interview.❀️

The Change looks so interesting. I love all the books with older, female protagonists that are coming out now! It's about time we are portrayed as something other than crones and witches in literature. (Though, I think we should also keep our magic at the same time!)
