50 Things To Do When You Turn 50


Ok, this is the big one...the big 5-0. So when this book came in, I thought, what better time to read it!
50 Things To Do When You Turn 50 is a compilation of 50 experts with short essays on the subject of turning 50. Some of the essays: Stop Complaining by Garrison Keillor; Stop Obsessing About Your Flaws by Bobbi Brown; Jump Off A Bridge by Mark Fenton; and Take Your Self Back, by Erica Jong.
The book is encouraging and enlightening, as well as being humorous. While I don't think I am ready to jump off a bridge, everyone nearing this age could glean some wisdom from it.
It's not too late to make my Bucket List yet though....hmmmm.
