Author: Anna Quindlen
The author writes about her journey as a woman. How things changed for her with every decade, how she changed with every decade. It was a very interesting read and there were so many things that I could relate to and so many things that she said about life that I felt were spot on. There are bits and pieces from the book that have harbored a place in my mind. She says that how when you are older younger women will come to you and ask for advice. They feel there's a formula. That you do A, B and C and that will give you D. But there isn't. Also, what you want changes as you grow and as your circumstances change. And looking back so many times you feel that what happened is what you wanted even if at that time you didn't think so.
I loved loved reading the book and it's hard to give just one reason for it. It feels as if the author is right in front of you narrating, has a good mix of humor and life philosophy and feels very relatable. One of the reasons I wanted to read this book is to see her thoughts on when she's older; to understand what are the different perspectives/feelings one goes through as they age.
Bottomline: Loved it!
