5.0 out of 5 stars Delightful!, January 21, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: WOOF: Women Only Over Fifty (Paperback)
This is a wonderfully delightful book. If you're fifty or close to it, you know the myriad of changes we experience; mentally, physically, psychologically and emotionally. This book offers a light-hearted look at those changes and you'll find yourself laughing and rejoicing (yes, rejoicing!) in being female and *suffering* through this STUFF!

A great gift idea, it's also something that a significant other or anyone else in your world who has possibly witnessed things like mood swings, hot flashes (I prefer "power surges"), or any other of the fun things we go through, might enjoy. It would shed some light on what's going on and be entertaining at the same time!

Lighten up a little and do something for YOU! Buy this book and get a refreshing perspective on this new stage in your life! It really is true that life begins at fifty! Enjoy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars A howingly good read for the over forty crowd too!, July 20, 2009
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: WOOF: Women Only Over Fifty (Paperback)
Over fifty? Overy forty? Who doesn't need a little humor about the mid-life years? WOOF: Women Only Over Fifty is a hilarious read about the many challenges of aging gracefully. And even though the title reads "Women Only" husbands, friends, fathers, and sons of WOOFers will find this a truly fun read as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Howlingly Great Read, June 28, 2009
This review is from: WOOF: Women Only Over Fifty (Paperback)
If you're a woman over fifty, I know you're feeling it. It begins like a tiny rumble, and grows steadily into a full-fledged howl: "I'm me... I'm me... at last, I'm finally ME!!"

This is the feeling the authors of WOOF: Women Only Over Fifty term "realignment." Diana Black, Mary Cunningham, and Melinda Richarz Bailey believe, rather than "reinventing" ourselves in midlife, women come back to who we truly are. We return to our unique identity apart from husbands, children, careers, and other roles we so willingly adopted in our younger years. In celebration of this amazing revelation, their book is packed with free-spirited, fun and pawsitive thoughts on growing older.

WOOF is filled with humorous reflections on an entire range of issues we face as aging women. Everything from "The Hair of the Dog" to "Menopaws" to the "Woof It Down Senior Maintenance Diet" is covered. The authors freely impart their observations on the inevitable passage to the land of the long tooth, gleefully sharing their own bones to pick on the topic.

If you're looking for the perfect book to while away the dog days of summer and provide you with howls of laughter, I can't think of a better choice than WOOF!
