Book Reviews of I Feel Bad About My Neck: And Other Thoughts On Being a Woman (Vintage)
Book Review: a women's read that is funny and true
Summary: 5 Stars
I am nuch younger than Nora Ephron but it didn't matter in the least -- I found her book to be hysterically funny and one of the reasons is she hits the mark on what women about and worry about. But truly it his her "voice" she is self-depreciating and light. She never brags or sounds fake or like she is trying to write like she is someone else. If you are searching for a novel, this is not you book. It is a collection of stories about her life and how hitting 60 affects her in many ways and one of them is her neck! So, girls, protect that neck! I have always been a huge fan of Nora Ephron, my favorite being, I believe Heartburn, the movie with Jack Nicholson and Meryl Streep. Since I grew up in Washington among the journalists, it made so mmuch sense and is actually the closest story I know of to my novel. But "I Feel Bad About My Neck" holds a different kind of appeal and makes you laugh outloud and also teaches you that perhaps your idiocyncicies are not as abnormal as you beleive.

Summary of I Feel Bad About My Neck: And Other Thoughts On Being a Woman (Vintage)
With her disarming, intimate, completely accessible voice, and dry sense of humor, Nora Ephron shares with us her ups and downs in I Feel Bad About My Neck, a candid, hilarious look at women who are getting older and dealing with the tribulations of maintenance, menopause, empty nests, and life itself.Ephron chronicles her life as an obsessed cook, passionate city dweller, and hapless parent. But mostly she speaks frankly and uproariously about life as a woman of a certain age. Utterly courageous, uproariously funny, and unexpectedly moving in its truth telling, I Feel Bad About My Neck is a scrumptious, irresistible treat of a book, full of truths, laugh out loud moments that will appeal to readers of all ages.
