Thanks for Waiting The Joy (& Weirdness) of Being a Late Bloomer【電子書籍】[ Doree Shafrir ]
<p><strong>An honest, witty, and insightful memoir about what happens when your coming-of-age comes later than expected</strong></p> <p><strong>“<em>Thanks for Waiting</em> is the loving, wise, cuttingly funny older sister we all need in book form.”ーTara Schuster, author of <em>Buy Yourself the F*cking Lilies</em></strong></p> <p>Doree Shafrir spent much of her twenties and thirties feeling out of sync with her peers. She was an intern at twenty-nine and met her husband on Tinder in her late thirties, after many of her friends had already gotten married, started families, and entered couples’ counseling. After a long fertility struggle, she became a first-time mom at forty-one, joining Mommy & Me classes where most of the other moms were at least ten years younger. And while she was one of <em>Gawker</em>’s early hires and one of the first editors at <em>BuzzFeed</em>, she didn’t find professional fulfillment until she co-launched the successful self-care podcast <em>Forever35</em>ーat forty.</p> <p>Now, in her debut memoir, Shafrir explores the enormous pressures we feel, especially as women, to hit particular milestones at certain times and how we can redefine what it means to be a late bloomer. She writes about everything from dating to infertility, to how friendships evolve as you get older, to why being pregnant at forty-one is unexpectedly freeingーall with the goal of appreciating the lives we’ve lived so far and the lives we still hope to live.</p> <p><em>Thanks for Waiting</em> is about how achieving the milestones you thought were so important don’t always happen on the time line you imagined. In a world of 30 Under 30 lists, this book is a welcome reminder that it’s okay to live life at your own speed.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
