There are times as a reader when I just need a fun, uplifting book. Often, this need arises when I've been lost in some rather heavy reads, as was the case when I picked up How to Age Disgracefully, by Clare Pooley. I desperately needed to laugh, and this book absolutely delivered. In fact, I don't remember the last time I laughed as hard as I did while hanging out with this unlikely gang of senior citizens. This quirky cast characters not only had me cackling, but also had me saying more than once to my husband, "I hope I'm as cool as these guys when I'm 70." Boom. New life goal. 😎 If you need a little dose of happy in your own reading life, I highly urge you to check out How to Age Disgracefully. You may just find yourself falling for this unconventional bunch as hard as I did.⁣⁣
