Just wanted to get the word out that 60 IS THE NEW 20 is now available at Chapters/Indigo stores across the country. It may not be in stock in every store, but it's in the system (finally!) and they'll get it for you if you ask. In Thunder Bay, Margaret Phillips continues to sell copies through the Northern Women's Bookstore (thank you, Margaret) and here in Guelph the Bookshelf has copies. And of course you can always order directly from this site - no shipping, no tax. |
| The following review of 60 is the new 20 appeared Sunday, Nov. 20th, in the Thunder Bay Chronicle-Journal: You can read it on my blog. |
| Just wanted to let you know that thegrandparentsguide.com is featuring another excerpt from 60 IS THE NEW 20... they've chosen a bit from chapter one, which is about seniors having sex - or not. The website was launched by two Toronto moms who saw the need for a website to let grandparents connect with and learn through their grandkids. I think it's a great idea and suggest you take a minute to check it out: thegrandparentsguide.com/hows-your-sex-life/. |
Just in time for Thanksgiving, Yom Kippur, Diwali, and All Hallow's Eve, 60 IS THE NEW 20 offers a distinctly tongue-in-cheek look at an often-maligned generation. A boomer's guide to aging with grace, dignity, and what's left of your self-respect, 60 IS THE NEW 20 is not a "joke" book, but neither is it one of those pious self-help books that suggest the author has discovered the secret to long life and eternal peace. Instead, it's an entertaining collection of personal essays benefiting from the honesty and self-deprecation of its author – me!
60 IS THE NEW 20 suggests that we face the future with humour, optimism and a certain amount of humility, fingers crossed that all will be well in the end. And if it isn't, there's always chocolate.
