Praise for How to Age Disgracefully:

“An uproarious romp!”
People

“Clare Pooley weaves together the most cleverly flawed and lovable characters and then sets them free to prove that we are limitless at any age. How To Age Disgracefully is a love letter to the human spirit.”
Annabel Monaghan, bestselling author of Nora Goes Off Script

“Funny, warm, wise, and a total riot….Clare Pooley is the best at marshalling a group of madly endearing characters, flicking her whip, and sending them careening off on a rollicking, entrancing, breakneck journey.”
—Beth Morrey, international bestselling author of Clover Hendry’s Day Off

“A lovably quirky, reassuringly wise, and memorably inspiring romp that shatters ageist stereotypes.”
Booklist, starred review

“What Pooley does best is create a club full of likable, fun-loving characters — Truth or Dare Jenga, anyone? — who are easy to root for. Just the kind of club many readers would be happy to join.”
—Minneapolis Star Tribune

“This makes for a truly funny laugh-out-loud novel and a great relief to the troubles of the day.”
—San Francisco Book Review

“Utterly hysterical and full of heart, with hugely loveable characters, a dialogue that had me in stitches and many profound moments. A totally wonderful, spirit-lifting read!”
—Hellie Acton, author of Begin Again

“Reading this book felt like a warm hug and its endearing, witty characters like old friends (Daphne is my hero!). I can’t recommend it enough.”
—Tess Amy, author of The Confidence Games

“Another stunning book from Clare Pooley, How to Age Disgracefully is guaranteed to warm your heart and brighten your days. Enthralling, vibrant, deliciously eccentric and just so funny.”

“These characters are drawn with both affection and respect their rich, varied lives are captured gorgeously and with a real wit.”
Apple Books Review

“Rollicking. . . Pooley’s clever and delightfully farcical scenes are laugh-out-loud funny, often thanks to the frank Daphne. This ought to satisfy Pooley’s fans and win her new ones.”
—Publishers Weekly 

“An eclectic bunch of West London locals bands together to save a community center. All wrestle with shame and regret. Each needs a boost. Madcap schemes, snappy banter, and insights on rebooting one’s joy make Clare Pooley’s latest novel go down smoothly.”
—Christian Science Monitor
