edit data

Retired from the post office, Liz Flaherty spends non-writing time sewing, quilting, and doing whatever else she wants to. She and her husband Duane live in the old farmhouse in North Central Indiana they moved to in 1977. They’ve talked about moving, but really…40-plus years’ worth of stuff? It’s not happening. It would require removing old baseball trophies from the attic and dusting the pictures of the Magnificent Seven, their grandchildren.
Liz thinks one of the things that keeps you young when you quite obviously aren’t anymore is the constant chances you have to reinvent yourself.

The sweetest kind of loving It broke my heart. It also reminded me to value my friends and to treasure what matters. It gives a look inside of dementia I’m glad to have seen. Highly recommended.

I loved this book. Frankly, I didn't always like Dottie Boone, but she grew, and before I knew it, she had a firm hold on my heart. So did the other people within the story, not to mention the turtles. There was a little bit of It's A Wonderful Life ...more
