Book Review: 50 After 50


Summary

50 After 50 is a memoir and guide book by Maria Leonard Olsen. In this book, the author shared her life story as well as life lessons to help readers in their 50s revive their self-worth and learn new things. When she turned 50, she had gifted herself by making a list of 50 new significant things she wanted to do. She went through physical challenges, adventure travel, and lifestyle changes that taught her new skills, deepened personal and spiritual relationships, and spiced up her life.


Review

I’ve just turned 40 this year and have been feeling really old and scared of what the future may hold, with or without the pandemic. My kids are my purpose in life; I live for them. And what I fear the most is when that time comes when they no longer need me. I would probably be lost. All thanks to this book, I realized it shouldn’t be too scary to grow old because once my kids are all settled in life, that means I have accomplished my main goal. I can then set new goals for myself and restart my life.


I’m giving this book 5 out of 5 stars. This book relieved me from my worries of getting old. It was truly exciting, enlightening, and inspiring! I highly recommend this to ALL readers and you don’t have to be 50 to read this, but I’m sure those in their 50s would be delighted to read this fascinating memoir and guide book!
