About this deal

Set on the Long Island town of Mattauk, this story features three women who band together to overcome evil in the community. Jo Levison is a former hotel executive who now owns a female only gym and harnesses her rage into a super strength Now the gardens had grown wild and a gutter dangled from the roof. The children across the street speculated that the owner, like so many unfortunate old ladies before her, had probably been eaten by cats.”

Meet the middle-aged Avengers from Mattauk, Long Island. A mid-life crisis has never sounded so good! This book is phenomenal, and it’s a complete standout for me this year! I have no doubt it will be on my top 10 list of favorite 2022 reads. There is no way I can adequately express how much I loved it, but I’ll at least try.At its core, it's the story of three women with special gifts. Harriet, who can pretty much do anything involving plants and nature, Nessa, who can hear the dead calling to her, and Jo, who can channel her rage through her body. These are just simplistic descriptions of these powerful women, but how they come together to use their gifts and powers for justice and good is a wonder to behold. I always want nuanced portrayal in the books I read. Every person should be judged by who they are instead of the color of their skin or their gender. So it makes me really uncomfortable to see groups of people lumped together like this, as if the sin of one is a reflection of all. Ambitious former executive Jo Levison has spent thirty long years at war with her body. The free-floating rage and hot flashes that arrive with the beginning of menopause feel like the very last straw—until she realizes she has the ability to channel them, and finally comes into her power. She was the co-author of a three-book children's series with Jason Segel named Nightmares!, of which the first book was released in the fall of 2014. [3] [4]

The Change is like a guttural rage scream (and some how a soft tearful hug) of a book, and I couldn’t have loved it any more.Anyway. Thriller about three menopausal women who have developed superpowers of seeing dead people, witchy plant magic, and extreme violence. They set out to find out who killed a girl and discover a whole series of rape/murders of teenagers. For a book that critiques popular culture using raped and murdered women as entertainment, it sure does have a lot of raped and murdered women in it.

How much? Paired it with audio over a seven hour road trip and stayed up till 2 a.m. to finish reading! I just could not put it down!A delicious fantasy full of righteous rage, thorny entanglements, powerful sisterhood, and (wink, nudge) herbal remedies. Forget the teen dabblers of The Craft, or the lovelorn witches of Practical Magic: Joe, Nessa, and Harriet are the dynamic coven that angry feminist dreams are made of, here to remind us that everything gets better with age and experience— especially revenge." Kat Rosenfield I enjoyed this story that had plenty of unfortunately realistic, rage-inducing moments. I felt for the women as individuals, professionals, moms, and spouses. The Change is a great reminder of the power of women working together and not being deterred by men. A pointed, punchy, and potent thriller...wry and clever, serious and exacting, and masterfully suspenseful." Booklist (starred review) A pointed, punchy, and potent thriller...wry and clever, serious and exacting, and masterfully suspenseful."--Booklist (starred review) And, once WE got past the descriptions of THEIR past menstrual cycles, it was a BLOODY good time! 🩸
