Book Reviews of Carved in Sand: When Attention Fails and Memory Fades in Midlife
Book Review: Keeping Your Mind Sharp As You Age...
Summary: 5 Stars
Having done my share of Nintendo DS games, crossword puzzles, Soduku, learning new instruments, reading new books and just about anything to help me remember; I found Carved in Sand a delight to read. The author's mission in finding out the hows and whys of her forgetful mind is clever, fun and a joy to read till the end. Being the same age as the author, I find myself getting more and more forgetful. This book is in my Top 10 of favorite books. Anyone that thinks they are losing their mind will find this book helpful. Thank you, Catherine, for helping me realize I'm normal (and making me smile along the way).
