Product Description
Wendy Reid Crisp, author of the spirited declaration-of-independence 100 Things I'm Not Going to Do Now That I'm Over 50, turns her gimlet eye to the next watershed age for boomers: turning 60.

She celebrates sixty as an age of independence-the independence to love, support, respect, accept, and forgive ourselves and others. In her wry, inimitable style, Crisp explores the fun, invaluable life-lessons sixty-somethings need to know-because sixty has never been like this!

5 out of 5 stars Life begins at 60   May 31, 2007

We Baby Boomers are moving into a new decade. For us 60s generation women, the 60s decade of our lives is a perfect fit. It is time once again to be free, to be inventive, to be thoughtful and philosophical, to be outrageous, to be brave. We are finally the Queens of our Selves, sovereigns of our own lives and domains. How exciting! And what fun!

I saw this book in a gift shop and knew I could get it at a better price through Amazon, so I ordered a copy for my cousin, who turned 60 last month. She has since bought copies for her friends who are turning 60. It's a great gift book with funny insights, not just platitudes about the aging process. A little humor goes a long way!


5 out of 5 stars We laughed a LOT   October 23, 2006

I was lucky enough to interview Wendy on my radio show on station WGNU in St Louis. It happens that I am a sixtyish lady and found the book wonderfull appropriate!
Wendy is a HOOT...we just laughed through the whole interview and we and our listeners felt like we'd related and knew the author and the book by the time (an hour later) that we were finished.
This is the sort of book you pass around to friends and give to pals who are having their 60th birthday. One of the great things about women getting older is that they really care about their friends and this book is a perfect illustration of that.
Hurry up and write the 70th birthday book, Wendy...I'm approaching it FAST.
