We read this book for our retreat and found the discussion around it very rich. Much to say about quotes from the book that is simply written by rich in content.

Didn’t Like It

Maybe I've read too many inspirational books, but a lot of it sounded like a repeat of what I've read in other books. I found myself daydreaming while reading because it's a little wordy.

    Hmmm...since we can't reverse time, I thought I might as well get a jumpstart on embracing the new midlife...LOL!
    Actually, this was a great read for me. For all of my viewing audiences, I wanted to show the serious side and share with fellow Shelfarians something other than romance...although I still love a great romance novel!! =)

    Reading this book is like having a straight-talking, wiser, close friend who tells you how the midlife is not a time to get old, but a time to renew yourself with the wisdom and knowledge that you have accumulated over the years.

    Message of this book is very similar to that of "A New Earth" by Eckhart Tolle and "The Four Agreements" by Miguel Ruiz. Thought-provoking and inspiring.

    In our ability to rethink our lives lies our greatest power to change them. I have found that "middle age" does not need to be seen as a turning point toward death. As a matter of fact, I have seen more miracles in the last two years of my life....more than I could have believed possible! This book only confirms what I have seen in my own life! Please read.........

    I'm a diehard Marianne fan, so it's hard for me to not like her work. But as I read the intro while in the cafe of my bookstore, it felt as if she had a microphone in my head. I completely resonated with her feelings & experiences. Funny, heartwarming, honest, account that will give you the strength to create a NEW midlife, not the one your mother had!

    I couldn't get through this book. I was just too bored...page after page. I was really looking forward to reading it too! Ah well...
