Bought it for a friend who says it’s a great read!

Not as humorous, enlightened or creative as I'd hoped. Just kinda ok. A decent add-on gift for someone turning 40, but that's about it.

I bought this book for a friend who was celebrating her 40th birthday. I browsed the book and was pleasantly surprised at the content. It's a series of essays by various people on basically how to celebrate life. Sometimes we get too caught up in the everyday routine of life and we forget how good it feels to "stretch" by considering another point of view and trying something new or different. While I didn't read the entire book, just glancing at the table of contents there were a few ideas worth pursuing. I am actually ordering another copy just for me - I thought it was that good. I'd recommend it for anyone looking to change up their world a bit, even if it's not time for a milestone birthday.

This was a gift for a friend turning 40. I wanted something nice and fun for her to read to help celebrate the special occasion

My friend loved this book for her 40th birthday!

This was a 40th birthday gift to my daughter. It is well written, humorous and has many good insights for someone turning 40. She isn't a big reader but read this and thoroughly enjoyed it.

I did not realize this book was geared towards women so I was unable to give the book to the birthday boy turning 40 so buyers beware. Otherwise, it appears to be a good book to give to a lady turning 40, however, I did not read it, but only glanced at it. Besides the book itself the seller seemed good, book condition was perfect, and shipping was very quick!
