Ten Thumbs Up

Time Happens is not only for the Baby Boomers, whoever they may be, but is also enjoyable and stimulating reading for those of us who have at times thought we had wonderful futures behind us.

Time Happens

"Time Happens". It DOES. And this book helps! If your approaching that time or have already passed it ... read this book! It will give you a whole new outlook on the whole process. It's not so bad after all!

A blueprint for living!

Coombs' book is full of wit and wisdom. A pithy guidline for growing older and retaining one's appetite for adventure. It should be inspirational for anyone nearing "the great divide" between the Baby Boom generation and the Golden Years.

My parents loved it!

I saw it, bought it for my "Baby Boomer" parents. They loved it; said it turn a lemon into lemonade. That's good enough for me.

A book for people who are new at being old

Cheers on a primo book! It cushions the impact of aging without insulating the reader from its realities. In place of the platitudes about those ubiquitous "Golden Years," TIME HAPPENS turns what is expected to be a bitter pill into something tangy and zesty, if not sweet.
