Content: heather 8. Very important subjects. Don't romanticize old age.

They aren't irrelevant or obsolete. In the us they are looked at a certain way. It's how you apply age. Loves her chapter in memory. The story you tell yourself. Some are at the surface others are deeper. All of that makes you who are.

I agree, 8 for me too. I love reflections on age, reading, memory, age.

It doesn't feel like a story. There wasn't one unified story.

Writing style: Heather gave it a nine. Rhythm is perfect. Some stuff I wanted to go over with you. Interesting details. I have to be judicious about the details I include in my memoir.

Heather pointed out the memory of her grandmother. Lively has great choices.

Isabelle's style had a different feel, warm, emotion,

Emotional impact: Heather says I felt almost nothing. I gave it a two. I don't feel anything for her. Nothing emotional to absorb.

Content 8: memory reading aging.
