I do hope you enjoy it also. <br /><br />NCMountainwoman,<br />Thanks for the tip about Harold Fry. I will check it out. <br /><br />Dr. Kathy,<br />I do hope you enjoy. It is a lovely escape. <br /><br />Marylee,<br />Like you, I enjoy enhancing my laugh wrinkles. I would hate to be unmarked at this age. What a boring life that would indicate. I'll check out the Rosie Project. Thanks. <br /><br />dkzody,<br />I love your review. Had I gotten it in time I would have added it to the post. Perfect.

It is a very good book that made me laugh out loud. Every so often, when I laughed so hard and loud, my husband would ask, "Is that still your 100 year old man that makes you laugh?" Yep, sure was. I was sorry to see that book come to an end.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1509736677359366469.post-61291463836731427382014-02-27T10:58:29.372-06:002014-02-27T10:58:29.372-06:00Sold! :) I've been reading books from the li...Sold! :) I've been reading books from the list of 16 Books to read before the movies come out. Can't say they're literature, but I've enjoyed them all so far. Most recent one was Labor Day. <br /><br />Have you read The Rosie Project? That one tickled my funny bone. If I'm going to have wrinkles (and I do!)

Still there are 100 year olds still working. <br /><br />TB,<br />Thanks TB. Most librarians are good about things like that. Think you might like the parts where he becomes involved with history. <br /><br />Grannie Annie,<br />It seems that those who do make that mark live pretty good lives. There is a 101 year old man in Florida running for Congress. <br /><br />Pat,<br />Thanks Pat. I know your TBR list is as long as mine.
