Indeed, they are. The book reviews are now coming in for  The Book That Almost Got Me Fired  by Kelly James -- and all 5 stars. Check out this on by Jennifer Nelson on Goodreads: "With edgy candor, James takes us along with her into her insightful journey back to corporate life in her 50s to snag health insurance and a regular paycheck. Surrounded by headphone wearing Millennials who don't converse much and a passive aggressive boss who doesn't know how to manage his inquisitive, smart, and outgoing new employee, James makes a series of "new-to-corporate-life" classic mistakes and brings us with her as she navigates the journey. An honest, funny, and sometimes cringe-worthy look into life as a middle-aged mom working for the man." CURRENTLY #3 ON AMAZON'S LIST OF HOT NEW RELEASES. Book description: You're 52. Divorced.
