Review: Invigorating! - An easy, sensible, welll-researched, thought-provoking and inspiring read. She kept my attention all the way. I quibble with a few things -- I think she underestimates the fragility of aging bodies (75 and up) in the face of extreme forms of medical care, and sometimes I disagree with her use of statistics to paint a rosier picture than I think is warranted. But it's a breath of fresh air, and made me think hard about the internalized shame that currently surrounds aging. She threads the needle, neither denying the realities of aging, nor bemoaning them, nor giving in to "90-year-old marathon runner syndrome," -- those chipper news features about exceptions to the rule. This is an overarching book, digesting many magazine articles and other secondary sources, supplemented by her own experience and her own voice, and interviews with people who are aging well. All in all, she places the "natural transitions" of aging in a nice progressive context. I can't wait for the next time a supermarket checker, however well meant, calls me "Young Lady," and I get the chance to tell him how proud I am of every wrinkle, and all that life has taught me. Next time I will not swallow.
Review: a brilliant and thoughtful manifesto that impacts us all - Ashton Applewhite’s book is a masterwork into which the author has obviously poured her heart, soul, and considerable intelligence. This book is an eye-opener AND a call to action AND a must read for anyone who is growing older (hint: we all are!) There are so many myths, distortions, deceptions, and prejudices against the whole reality of aging that it is truly frightening. Bottom line is we will all be impacted by the choices that are being made and the policies instituted based on all this misinformation. Applewhite’s manifesto is not only painstakingly researched and impressively organized, it is also a “good read” by a good writer. Educate yourself. Educate your friends and family. This is an important conversation for all of us to be having now. The quality of our lives as well as our longevity may well depend on it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ An eye-opening book, well worth a read
*by E***H on April 22, 2016*

First, the stars. I only give 5 stars to things I consider all-time literary masterpieces, so 4 stars is pretty much my top rating for anything in this genre. In other words, I thought this book was great. Reading This Chair Rocks (love the title), I was surprised at how much internalized ageism I uncovered. I hadn't ever really thought about ageism as a thing, except in terms of job discrimination, which is fairly obvious. By the time you are halfway into this book you will not doubt that it is a thing. A very big thing, that takes a toll on our health and happiness throughout our lives, whether we are experiencing ageist attitudes from others or imposing them upon ourselves. The book is well-written, funny, and thought-provoking, and I had quite a few aha! moments where Applewhite made an observation or analysis that resonated with me but that I'd never consciously considered before. I'm seeing the world in a new way since reading this book, and I plan to give copies to friends and family, because the more people who begin to think differently about the process of aging, the better for all of us. Highly recommended.
