Then Again... Diane Keaton's Memoirs

This book, "Then Again" by Diane Keaton, was almost impossible to put down!  It was thoughtful, engrossing, and memorable. I bought the hard cover version because I wanted to hold it, to look at the photos many times, and be able to share it with someone when I was done.

Her mother left her thousands of pages of her journals including writings and collages.  I can't imagine how incredible that would be to know that much about your mother.  My Mom died two decades ago.  I have her photos and her art and some of her writing.  It was fascinating to see how Diane Keaton would weave the story and memoirs of her mother along with her own stories.

I have boxes of letters that my mom wrote me.  She never put dates but I can guess when they were written. Someday I'll go through all of them!

This blog of mine I publish as a book for myself every year.  Maybe someday those who come after me will be interested in my life and passions!

I sent the book on to my sister as a Christmas present.  I hope she enjoys it as much as I did!
