Summary: Having a Wonderful Time, Wish you were here!
Comment: "Midlife Mavericks" takes the fear out of moving to a third world country. Karen Blue explores the continuing trend of North Americans retiring in Mexico. She focuses on single women who leave careers, adult children, and their lives behind for an idyllic and simpler life in a Mexican village. I felt as if I'd met the women interviewed in this book because I lived in the Lake Chapala area for five years. A large population of retirees have lived in the region for more than half a century. The well-established English speaking society and a generous Mexican community welcomes them with open arms. This is a must read for anyone considering moving to this Americanized part of Mexico.

Summary: Inspiring and fun!
Comment: What an inspiration this book is. The stories of the 17 women included in this book cover a wide range of ages, financial situations and personal goals. Although not every woman will choose to reinvent her life by moving to Mexico (as I have done), I'm sure the "Indiana Joans" within these pages will motivate readers to reevaluate their situations and perhaps take some risks to try someing new to improve them.
For women considering a move to Mexico, the openness with which these women speak - both of their fears and hopes, as well as their joys and disappointments - paint an accurate picture of what it is like to uproot your life and rebuild another one south of the border.
Bravo Karen Blue, for a great read and bravo to the women for their spirit of adventure and for their courage in taking the steps necessary to make their dreams come true.
