Reading: I ALMOST FORGOT ABOUT YOU - Terry McMillan

Bay-area optometrist Georgia Young, 54, seemingly has it all. A beautiful home, a successful practice, two grown daughters and a pair of granddaughters, a feisty mother, and two decades-old best friends who always have her back. Yet Georgia has hit a rut. Life feels stagnant and without passion. She hasn't dated seriously in years, never mind getting laid, and is bored with her work and life in general. When receiving word of the death of a former beau/acquaintance, Georgia decides on a project in which she will make a list of the men in her life who - for one reason or another - truly meant something to her at one time, and track each of them down to see how he's doing and thank him for being a part of her life. So begins her quest on Facebook, tracking down the past, as Georgia also makes plans to sell her hillside home and even her share of the optometry practice in preparation of a cross-country Canadian train trip ... all in the name of reinventing herself and finding her passion again. Terry McMillan's latest gets a little slow in the middle, but is so well worth the ride thanks to a refreshing heroine whose life and mindset anyone over the age of 50 will understand.  In a sense, it's how Georgia gets her groove back, but also so much more - funny, touching, heartfelt, and romantic without the schmaltz; by the end through moist eyes I was rooting so hard for Georgia, even while I understood how the past could keep her from opening up her heart and trusting again. A sweet fairy tale that left me grinning ear to ear, especially after that "Ah-ha!" moment that revealed the reason behind the title. Still lovin' me some Ms. McMillan. 4.5/5 stars
