68 Turning Heads and Pages ~ Women's Birthday Tee

Turning Heads and Pages ~ Sixty-Eight Reads Late and Shows Up Early

Two books a week, a standing library date and a reading chair nobody else may sit in. She still gets a second look at the farmers market, and she still notices. At sixty-eight her to-read pile and her social calendar are both overbooked.

• Book Club Gift: Her club will fight over who gets to give it, so make it a group buy.
• From Her Husband: He has lost her to a good novel a thousand times and never once minded.
• Quiet Birthday: Her 68th can be a new hardcover, a long bath and this to open first.
