"In I Almost Forgot About You, McMillan gives us a story about the possibility of change at any age couched in her customary vivacious prose and lush portrayals of character and relationships.

"Nobody does female reinvention better than McMillan... another winner for McMillan's groaning bookshelf of hits."--AARP magazine

"McMillan has written an engaging novel with an appealing cast of women... This near-perfect choice for women's book club discussions will prompt arguments of what makes a guy too good to be true. Stock up with multiple copies." -Library Journal (starred review)

"Terry McMillan's novels have always been about telling the uncensored truth about friends, family, lovers, and oneself. Through addictively revealing conversations - including an instructive one about the sexual prowess of men who made the A list - McMillan's narrator is the ideal running commentator on what smart women do to reach the pinnacle of success and what they must do to get the hell out before it's too late. It's a story about both reinvention and acceptance, told in McMillan's quintessential voice, now even more expansive, prismatically perceptive, and laugh-aloud generous in how we talk about love and all its wonders."--Amy Tan, New York Times bestselling author of The Joy Luck Club and The Valley of Amazement

"One of my favorite authors since I read Waiting to Exhale in college, Terry McMillan has done it again with this one. Overflowing with her trademark heart and humor, I Almost Forgot About You will inspire you to live a little bigger. I wish Georgia weren't fictional--I would find her and befriend her." --Emily Giffin, #1 New York Times bestselling author of First Comes Love and Something Borrowed

"The warmth and wisdom we have come to expect from Terry McMillan are on full display and you won't be able to walk away from Georgia and her exuberant life. This is that thrilling kind of novel that reminds us how sometimes, fairy tales happen when we least expect them, if only we open ourselves to possibility."--Roxane Gay, New York Times bestselling author of Bad Feminist and An Untamed State
