Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old: Thoughts on Aging as a Woman by Brooke Shields

DID NOT FINISH: 71%

---

I started off enjoying listening to this book. I related to some of the things she was talking about regarding aging but as she gets into becoming an empty nester, as some who chose not to have kids, I couldn’t relate to her journey and I started loosing interest. As the book continued, I found myself becoming irritated because it seemed to just be complaining without resolution. As a woman, I already KNOW the challenges we face and can commiserate with that but after listening for 6 hours, I couldn’t take the rest.
