“How Not to Look Old: Fast and Effortless Ways to Look 10 Years Younger, 10 Pounds Lighter, 10 Times Better” (Springboard Press) was written by Charla Krupp, style expert for the “Today Show” and former beauty director for Glamour. We gave our Women Talking Groups copies of this book. Wow, did we get a reaction! Most had a negative reaction to the title and yet, they admitted to finding it useful.
