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

reviewed on + 300 more book reviews
Helpful Score: 2


Title of the book came from a discussion between the author and her granddaughter. The author told her that "the girls" were coming over to play bridge. The granddaughter asked, "What girls?" When her grandmother explained, she said, "Oh, I know the girls with the grandmother faces!"

A book outlining the potential that all women have, at any age, even the ones with the "grandmother faces"! A good read and a good primer on friendship and expectations of aging. (Keep one - throw the other out the window!)
