BROOKE SHIELDS IS NOT ALLOWED TO GET OLD Thoughts on Aging as a Woman

In her latest memoir, the now 59-year-old actor Brooke Shields candidly narrates her experiences entering middle age, illuminating both her personal experience and research into topics like healthcare, sex, and parenthood. Shields's candid stories--like the ones about her exercise-induced femur break, her journey parenting adult children, and more--are narrated with wry humor and humility and are made all the more powerful by hearing them in Shields's clear, husky voice. The overarching themes of empowerment and comfort in one's own skin even if it is no longer wrinkle free are a perfect listen for those who enjoy celebrity-narrated memoirs.
