On Being Old (with Acceptance and Gratitude) is a true story of how three friends happened to get together after many years of total separation from each other. Mary Jo, Nadine, and Sam took up right where they left off, talking and laughing, questioning and filling each other in about their lives. They discussed the feelings that come with aging, the fears, and the physical changes. They communicated more honestly than in their younger days and covered topics that they had not in the past.

Read this heartwarming collection of personal stories, from three totally different people with totally different views on most subjects, and perhaps you will identify with one of the characters and find a path and companionship into yourself as they did.

Reviews

Darryl Silva

"I read it and enjoyed it. It was a great take on the big issues everyone deals with. It’s funny – there was a section where you thought of yourself as still adolescent at one point in your life, but when you worked for me you brought such mature leadership that spread throughout the program to others. I remember walking you to the elevator on 12/12/12 and can’t believe that was nine years ago."

Shana Campbell

"Timing is everything! A much needed look into “The good old life.” With my mom’s outlook on life lately, she has made aging look unbearable. While her diminished mental capacities play into it, I didn’t realize how much I needed some positive motherly insight and guidance. Your three takes on the aging game helped more than you will know. Can’t tell you how much I needed to see joy and acceptance of this natural process and am grateful you all have kept mentally healthy to write this charming, sincere, insightful book. Thank You."

Dianne Patterson

"I really enjoyed this book. The honesty and humor are so refreshing! I saw myself in many of your thoughts and stories and love the graphics and quotations that introduced each chapter. The book is full of good advice for us seniors but my favorite is chapter 8, The Philosophy of Life. You ladies have shown that there is more than one way to make this journey. You should take pride in a job well done!"

"Judie and I both read this book and loved it. Of course, being a good friend of one of the writers helped. Her memories were the best. However, with all the stories and remembrances we were able to bring back similar thoughts to our past. It can be hard growing old and sometimes all we have is the memories. But, we did enjoy them as they came and reminded us of all the good times we had growing up with such a diversified group of friends. This is easy reading and one of those books you just don't want to put down. Always looking forward to the next memory. Thanks to all these women who shared their life with us."

"I just finished reading my current best book on growing Old w/ Acceptance and Gratitude. I enjoyed and related to each of these 3 Ladies. What a WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE.?!THANKS for sharing. I do want to read it again - it is so 'true to life'.

Well, the book is absolutely charming! ....Such generous women to write so honestly.

I read the book almost immediately upon receiving itI Googled “a Cursillo” - had not heard of it before.

It would be fun to meet all three of these marvelous women some day. The book, I must add, is so very well written. And, I liked the format, allowing each of the women a voice in each chapter on well-chosen topics.

Congratulations to the authors."

not bad
Format: Kindle
I loved the plot of this book. The characters just didn’t have a lot of depth. The connections and “love” just weren’t communicated very well in the writing. The author didn’t write the sweet psycho trope very well at all either. Lachlan was just a mess of a character.

A Beta Worth Rooting For
Format: Kindle
In Spare, Violet Fox flips the omegaverse on its head, giving us a Beta heroine determined to make her mark. Joining the Beta Trials to support her sick father, she's thrown into a pack that doesn't want her, especially the possessive Alphas. But here's the twist: their sweet Omega turns out to be her scent match. Cue the angst, forbidden tension, and a slow-burn romance that will make your heart ache in the best way. Violet Fox delivers an emotional, refreshing take on the genre, proving Betas aren't "spares." They're stars.

Beta, Alpha, Omega oh my!
Format: Kindle
Omegas are precious and given to Alphas & their packs... but the Betas want in too. To this end, the Beta government is rolling out its trial of assigning a Beta to each Alpha-Omega pack. But forcing a Beta into a pack where they are not wanted will not end well... Of course, no one expected the Omega to fall for the assigned Beta. Great read and cliffhanger

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5
