Melissa’s review of Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old: Thoughts on Aging as a Woman > Likes and Comments

Great review! Sounds like such an empowering read.

I'm with you: this is a great age -- I have fewer f's to give, and while I've always spoken my mind, I'm being even more gregarious, and it feels marvelous.

Love the review! ❤️

Great review, Melissa!

Fabulous review, Melissa!🩵I'd rather feel good than look good,💯%

Please…I still turn heads! I just trip and fall immediately when I walk into a room. Works every time!

Fantastic review, Melissa.

I liked this one too and found I could relate a lot to it. Great review Melissa!

You are absolutely right about that first paragraph!! Great review and I’m looking forward to reading it soon! 😎

Marvellous review, Melissa. 🩷

Sounds like a great read Melissa! 💞

Amazing review, Melissa! 💜 I am right there with you. Brooke Shields is still just as gorgeous today as she ever was.

Beautiful review, Melissa 💗!!!! Sounds like a book I need to read.

I adore your new mantra and this review, Melissa! The invisibility thing is real for sure, but so is the freedom you described. I'm sure I'd find this book relatable! 💗

I was little more timid in my 20s, though I did have my moments, but now I have zero f's to give, to use your phrase, Melissa. And yes -- it feels fantastic. I'd choose my 40s over my 20s any day. :)

Thank you, Kat! The freedom is what I enjoy the most about middle age. I wouldn't go back to my 20s for anything. :)

Wow, such a great review, Melissa
Every woman should read what you just wrote

Awesome review, Melissa. 🤗💕

I think I’d enjoy the audio, too. Powerful review, Melissa.

I love how you juxtapose physical aging with how ready to be seen we finally are, Melissa. I do wonder sometimes if it’s the invisibility that allows us to find ourselves…?

I agree -- I think it IS the invisibility that allows us to finally come into our own, Jennifer. It's because we're not so focused on our outsides at this age, and we're able to work more on our insides. :)
