review 1: There is much to love in the book. It provides a glimpse into the lives of those who have dared break out of the "age" box and pursue life head on. I appreciate the idea so much that I would have given that 4 stars, but think it reads more like a series of blogs, with of course, a through-line, but still a bit of a disjointed flow at times, hence the 3 stars. I wanted a 3.5 choice!There is real talent here by Eve. She has a great eye for a story! Some of the lives shared made me want her to go DEEP instead of long. I think, personal preference here, the book might have worked better for me with fewer people covered in more depth. The organization and development did not show off the material to best advantage at times.But, the book still works. I will use it to dip into wh... moreenever I feel that "I am too old" mantra start to creep in and take over my enthusiasm. It works like an anti-ageism pill! A good solid read which might shine even more with a bit more flow and depth massaged into a later version? And reading about Ina's trip to her cooking life was worth the price to me.
review 2: Amazon Kindle freebieAn inspirational, enlightening read. Anyone approaching their late 30's and older should pick this book up. It’s a testament to, in this youth worshiping society, that being over 35 years old life does not end [stop, cease, terminate, conclude, etc.] Instead it’s reinvented, or better yet, it’s just beginning. Anyone younger than 35 years old should pick this book up. Discover the next phase of life early, and start planning that adventure NOW! less
