The first two chapters were good; the one about aging necks and better still, the one about hating your purse. It did startout promising. But after that the book fell totally and completely FLAT! The rest of the book was mediocre at best. How many of us can really relate to renting an apartment in 1980 that cost $1,500.00 per month? Plus she pays the former tenent $24,000 for the right to move into that apartment...and then the rent goes up to $10,000 a month by the time she moves out ten years later!!
This is suppose to be a humorous look at growing older. It does start out that way. But the rest of the book is more depressing than it is funny.
