What's Age Got To Do With It?

Photobucket

What’s Age Got To Do With It by Robin McGraw was exactly what Mrs. McGraw said it would be. It was a book about her ideas on aging and how she has lived her life. I had hoped for some motivational readings and some new information on aging but it was simply a book about what worked in her life only. I suppose interest in her next book called Ask Robin will sell again because who she is.

I read Mrs. McGraw’s story and found myself caught up in her life story, especially now that she is able to afford more expensive treatment for her various ailments. Spas and various specialty tests by her doctors are not available to most working women because they are not covered by most insurances.

Her list of experts that she uses would be awesome if they were truly available to everyone. For example, if Robert Reames came to my house to help me work out I might be more motivated to work out too. And having Cojo help me choose my fashion apparel would indeed make me a better dressed person, if only I could afford what he suggested.

It was a fast read and entertaining at times but if you truly want a book with useful information about aging I suggest you choose a book by a true M. D. like Christiane Northrup. If you want to read about celebrity life, then choose Robin’s next book.
