I read it from beginning to end without stopping. My copy is still making the rounds among my friends. You won't be sorry.

5 out of 5 stars Late Bloomers: a Rose of a Book.......2001-05-29

I loved this book, from the title on. I don't know if the author intended a pun when she chose the word "bloomers," but I kept thinking about the early feminists who were called bloomers because they dared to wear trousers. This book is about revolutionaries, also, because it tells the true stories of women who dared to become themselves at an older age. The stories all revolve around a theme, of women who usually met a special woman after the age of 40, fell in love, and then had their world spin around. The author/editor sent a survey out to women across the USA, and these stories consist of the responses that she received back. The survey is included as an appendix to the book, and is an interesting read in itself. Try taking the survey together with your friends or your lover, like I did. It will open up some intersting conversations!

Buy this book, read this book, share this book. You will come to know and treasure the many women who are scattered throughout the pages, the women who were brave enough and foolhardy enough to follow their hearts.
