A Good Chuckle
This was a light read. Mainly, it was a collection of the author’s thoughts about aging. So much of what she said was incredibly relatable. She gave me a glimpse into what I have to look forward to over the next 10 years. There was lots of humor infused into her rants. I found myself laughing out loud throughout the book. Her funny spin on subjects that can be hard to navigate made this an enjoyable read.

Like listening to your drunk Republican aunt at holiday dinner.

I am the same age currently, as the author was when she wrote this. I relate to so much of what she said. Getting old is not for sissies. The story was told with humor and self defecation, and a little bit of hope.

In the beginning it was hilarious. But it’s the kind of humor that to me gets boring pretty quickly. There’s no real plot, just memories. After about 20% in to the book the jokes were not funny anymore, they felt exaggerated. It took me a long time to finish it because of this. I need to be in a particular mood to appreciate this humor, but it has to be in bits and pieces. Not a binging book for me.
