Book #2: Back When We Were Grownups by Anne Tyler

So, we picked a new book which I hope others like. And if it doesn't appeal to you, that's fine too - recommend the next book!

We couldn't get a sense of the book at all based on the covers, but the first page pulled us in.
Once upon a time, there was a woman who discovered she had turned into the wrong person.

She was fifty-three years old by then - a grandmother. Wide and soft and dimpled, with two short wings of dry, fair hair flaring almost horizontally from a center part. Laugh lines at the corners of her eyes. A loose and colorful style of dress edging dangerously close to Bag Lady.

Give her credit: most people her age would say it was too late to make any changes. What's done is done, they would say. No use trying to alter things at this late date.

It did occur to Rebecca to say that. But she didn't.

I like reading how people figure out who they are and their place in the world, as long as they aren't whiny.

So, let the reading begin! Sarah bought the book and I picked it up at the library and will read on my travels. Hopefully we like it!
