I really enjoyed this novel by Terry McMillan. It's about Georgia, a twice-divorced optometrist in the Oakland area who learns of a long-ago lover who has died. Regretting that she never told him how important he was to her at that point in her life, she decides to reach out to all the men she's loved in her life. As she embarks on this project, she also begins to question her career choices and starts dreaming of a career in art or design. Dealing with aging parents, two daughters with their own struggles, grandchildren, and managing a variety of encounters with old and new flames, Georgia slowly works her way towards a more fulfilling life. I loved the writing, the characters, and the great conversations between the (mostly) women in this book.
