I Feel Bad About My Neck

Laugh out loud funny and written in a way that every aging woman can relate to. I couldn't put it down.

Don't waste ur time reading this....awful.

I didn't want it to end

I have been meaning to read this book for quite some time, and finely did upon Ephron's recent death. Despite a rather scathing review by another iBook reader, I found this book to be light and entertaining. I especially thought it was insightful and truthful, as I am middle-ageist (fifty-three years old) myself. I took it as not meandering or disjointed, but rather a series of essays on now pressing issues and related reflections on the past. I particularly liked the chapters regarding her pursue and maintenance.

I have always loved the author's work and couldn't wait to read this book. I am 53 years old and expected to find a lot of humor about women as we age. Instead, I found a great deal of rambling that was senseless. I came away with the feeling that she either needed the money for another book or one last ego-stroking experience before people realized she really had nothing funny left to say. I can't believe that I wasted almost $10 on this book and received nothing in return. It would have been a much better experience to have re-read one of her previous books or to have rented one of her movies. What a sad way to end a successful career.
