Thanks to Cozy Mystery Review Crew and the author for an advance reader's copy. All comments and opinions are my own.

This was an entertaining memoir written by a feisty 83-year-old writer who is also an artist, actor, performer, and humorist. I appreciated Annie’s honesty, and her witty and wise observations about life, others, and herself.

With laugh-out-loud authenticity, she shares her lifetime of stories, what she’s learned and how she is finally comfortable with her age and her appearance, her lifestyle, and her friends. What makes this book a step above the usual biographical narrative is Annie’s underlying message of kindness. Yes, she’s from New York (specifically the Bronx, as she’s quick to tell you) so she’s outspoken and brash. But there’s also a warmth and sincerity in this easy-to-read book of life-affirming truths.

This is probably the rare inspirational book containing four-letter words on almost every page. But nonetheless Annie is an endearing grandmother with heart and chutzpah. I was disappointed to come to the end of the book and look forward to her next one.
