Did I Say That Out Loud?


Book Description

From the former editor-in-chief of Real Simple, enjoy this hilarious and deeply insightful take on the indignities of middle age and how to weather them with grace: "A pure pleasure to read" (Cathi Hanauer, author of Gone). ​ Do you hate the term “middle age?” So does Kristin van Ogtrop, who is still trying to come up with a less annoying way to describe those years when you find yourself both satisfied and outraged, confident and confused, full of appreciation but occasional disdain for the world around you. Like an intimate chat with your best friend, this mostly funny, sometimes sad, always affirming volume from longtime magazine journalist van Ogtrop is a celebration of that period of life when mild humiliations are significantly outweighed by a self-actualized triumph of the spirit. Finally! Featuring stories from her own life, as well as anecdotes from her unwitting friends and family, van Ogtrop encourages you to laugh at the small irritations of midlife: neglectful children, stealth insomnia, forks that try to kill you, t.v. remotes that won’t find Netflix, abdominal muscles that can’t seem to get the job done. But also to acknowledge the things you may have lost: innocence, unbridled optimism, smooth skin. Dear friends. Parents. It’s all here: the sublime and the ridiculous, living together in the pages of this book as they do in your heart, like a big messy family, in this no-better-term-for-it middle age.

Can Emma find her bravery and the magic within before it's too late, or will all of the unicorns be doomed? The Unicorn Princess is a modern fairy tale inspired by old and new stories alike, including titles such as Frozen, Hansel and Gretel, Peter Pan, and The Wizard of Oz. This sweet and enchanting tale is told from the perspective of a little girl who sometimes struggles with courage and believing in herself. The book shows that sometimes our fears create opportunities to grow and show ourselves that we can! And of course the whole story is told with a bit of magic and a whole lot of sparkle!
