Even in your late 40s, you can still find a happily-ever-after, just maybe not the way you've read about in books.
THE TUESDAY GIRL follows the author's three-year journey of self-discovery while she heals from past relationships, figures out what she wants, and moves on with her life, creating something bold and beautiful along the way.
Tanya Eby is a narrator and has performed over 1,100 audiobooks over her two-decade career. Half of her narrations have been of romance novels. You'd think with narrating all these romance titles, she'd have some deeper insight into romantic relationships. Yeah. Not so much.
In 2020, while the world is in lockdown, the author is starting over. Again. She leaves marriage number two and vows that she's going to live a healthy and authentic life.
Told primarily through conversations, THE TUESDAY GIRL is raw, witty, emotional, and ultimately inspirational. Tanya takes the reader on intimate dates, walks with friends, and conversations with people in her life. She falls in love with someone who she is certain is different from anyone she's ever met, only to discover that he is a conman. Through it all, she relies on her friend Erin and learns that romance isn't something that just happens in books: it's something that runs throughout your own life.

Reader reviews:
"A searingly visceral memoir of contemporary life. The terrain is everything your friends talk about but somehow never see reflected in media. While reading, I thought of no fewer than four women I wanted to give this to. Like all masterful things, its retstraint is the source of its universal profundity. A watershed, a timestamp, a mirror, a gift."
"This book is both brave and beautiful."
"Tanya has written a raw and honest portrait of herself. She lets us see the warts, the bad parts, the awful things we sometimes say to people we love. She also invites us go on her journey of rediscovering her body, sex, of finding how to be loved well and what love really is thru gorgeous prose and her unique sense of humor. This is a book for seekers of selves, for seekers of love, for those of us (many of us) who found ourselves mired in heartbreaking loneliness during Covid, those of us who have been broken by the end of a big relationship. It's a book of hope and self discovery."
"I'm not even halfway through the Tuesday Girl and I am nodding in agreement and I have tears in my eyes and I am so moved by Tanya's story."
"I read Tanya's memoir today on the airplane and was so consumed with it I literally was reading my iPad as it sat on the side of the sink in the airport restroom, reading it walking to baggage claim...I can't remember the last time I read a book all in one gulp like that. It's stunning."
"I started reading and couldn't put it down. I love, love, love the theme of friendship that transcends life's changes, and the big aha moment near the end was simply glorious. Altogether raw and triumphant."
