Publisher's Summary
A hilarious and empowering perimenopausal Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, about Clover Hendry, 46, and the day she decides to stop keeping the plates spinning, say F@#! it all, and finally get hers.
Today is not the day to mess with Clover Hendry.
Clover hasn’t said “No” a day in her life. Until today. Normally a woman who tips her hairdresser even when the cut is hideous, is endlessly patient with her horrendous mother, and says yes every time her boss asks her to work late—today, things are going to be very different. Because Clover is taking the day off. Today, she’s going to do and say whatever she likes, even if it means her whole life unravels.
What made Clover change her ways? Why doesn’t she care anymore? There’s more to this day than meets the eye.
Clover Hendry's Day Off is a joyful, raging, galvanizing story about putting life on pause, pleasing yourself, and getting your own back. Whatever it takes. Because when Clover stops caring, she can start living.
What the critics say
An EveryMom Can’t-Put-Down Book
“Deep and satisfying….In Morrey’s hands, [Clover Hendry’s Day Off] offers more than escapist fun.”–Publishers Weekly
"Clover Hendry has had enough–and haven’t we all? This empowering, hilarious and messy attempt at grabbing back her life–just for a day–will leave you squealing and cheering. A reminder to put yourself first! Absolutely adorable and wonderful. I love everything by Beth, but this may be my favourite book yet.”–Lizzy Dent, author of The Summer Job
“Hilarious, inspiring and peri-menopausal–Clover Hendry is a heroine for our times. She made me laugh, cry, and want to blow stuff up. A superhero for middle-aged women everywhere.”–Clare Pooley, author of The Authenticity Project
