Book Review of The Girls with the Grandmother Faces: A Celebration of Life's Potential for Those Over 55

reviewed on + 254 more book reviews


This is a book aimed at women over 55, and especially those who are widowed. I read it anyway (didn't know the last part). I enjoyed it, and there are a lot of points that can be easily taken by just about anyone, especially women, throughout it. Go out. Do something. Don't sit at home. Find your own life and don't expect family to fulfill everything.

She's right, it's easier when you have no kids, and especially if you are on your own, but it's still a message worth hearing at any time.
