Amy is turning fifty and decides to embark on a year of adventure and self-discovery by following the fifty one challenges that have been set out for her. What follows is a laugh out loud, must read book. A very enjoyable read.

I received a digital ARC of #51weeks from #NetGalley for an honest review.

I really enjoyed this book and found it easy to read. There were lots of funny moments but also more serious and thought provoking points too. I found myself wondering what I would do in Amy's situation. Although the main character is in her fifties, she didn't feel old or difficult to relate to. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a funny read.

Amy is about to turn 5o and she decides to take on a series of challenges to celebrate a milestone. She wants to do fifty things she's never done before. Some adventures are chosen by her some by her three best friends. Exciting and challenging experience awaits her.
I enjoyed this very much, especially hilarious escapades like HD eyebrows. Lovely set of characters, colorful and endearing makes this book warm and heartfelt.
Good example for those who are up for a challenge or feel that they haven't lived vicariously enough.
Fun, entertaining and highly enjoyable.

A big thank you to NetGalley and Cameron Publicity for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. First time reading this author. I loved this book! Turning 50 and decides to do 51 challenges. Amy pushes her own limits, stretches herself, learns New things about herself and her life! She grows, experiences heartache, and crazy stunts, but what a fun filled journey. Geoff is a JERK!!! I found this to be an inspiring book, and something that I could relate to. This may not be for women in their twenties, but I think even they would enjoy it. I rated this a 4.5.

Extremely well written with characters that were relatable. I loved the premise, as well! Definitely recommend!

Amy is unsure of how to celebrate her 50th Birthday, she doesn’t want the usual party (that she would have to organise). Suddenly she has an epiphany and decides she wants to ‘experiment and experience’. She wants to challenge herself and get to know herself better.
I initially picked up this book thinking it might be a little inspirational with some humour but unfortunately it missed the mark with me.
I found it quite easy to read but essentially it’s a typical story of a marriage stale and wife/mother feeling undervalued. (Really though...who would like a husband like Geoff!!??)
I also felt it cheapened the story in the first few chapters, when Amy has a small conversation with a man and seems to become infatuated with him. Some of the challenges were good but others left a bad taste in my mouth, I guess they would be ones I wouldn’t even go near.
I did read it all the way through and it made me very grateful for my husband but the book wasn’t really what I was expecting.
Thank you to Netgalley and the Publisher for an ARC to read.

Loved the style and organization of this book with the 51 challenges. There were a few times I found the challenges a bit unrealistic (sex phone operator). Overall, a great book!

51 Weeks by Julia Myerscough is a fun book that I really enjoyed. Amy Richards decides that for her 50th year she will do a mystery challenge once a week, from suggestions her best friends Cate, Claire and Bea put in. At times this book was hilarious, educational, and inspiring. I will be reading more books by this author. If you are looking for a light fun read, I recommend this book.

I received this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.

I enjoyed this book - it made me laugh in places but touching too. The lead character Amy is likeable and I enjoyed her journey through the challenges. Easy to read and entertaining, the story kept my interest throughout.

A charming, witty book, highly recommended. I am looking forward to the next book by this author.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

I really liked this book. It's funny and thought provoking. I might even try a few of the challenges Amy, the MC, did.

A year long journey of self discovery; 51 weeks of unexpected challenges in the main characters 50th year of life! Rather than celebrate in the traditional fashion of throwing a party, Amy decides that she wants to step out of her cozy comfort zone and push herself to experience new and exciting things before its too late!

And so begins 51 weeks of fun, tears, exhilaration, fatigue, stunts, fear, heartache and good old fashioned laughter! I really enjoyed Amy's journey of self discovery and would definitely recommend this book to others!

This is an enjoyable read with lots of interesting characters. It's fun to see how some of the key characters change during the course of the book. Some characters however are in denial about the need for life to change. The nature of the plot makes for an episodic style but sometimes there was a lack of detail especially near the end of the book. It is a hopeful book in that it highlights for us that whatever our age we can look to a future that is as exciting as we are prepared to make it. Some times,as in the story we just need to stand back and take the space and time to look at life with fresh eyes. Am looking forward to more by this new author.
