This book seriously describes the road of aging, though taking a sincerely jocular route. Donna has exempted herself from the trappings of getting old to the more light and feathery part of the subject if there is one. Getting old is for the birds she says, and did ask where is the gold in those golden years, in the appropriate last piece. however what runs throughout the work is some of the most candid, open and frank expressions that will make you sad, make you laugh and most of all give you hope.
