NEW BOOK REVIEWS:
"Her scenes are so well written and poignant that this is the type of reading one cannot put down, because the narrative flows so smoothly." hippocampus magazine
"GRAY IS THE NEW BLACK is a coming of age memoir for those of us who took a little longer than others to write it all down. Rice discusses being a daughter, sister, mother, grandmother and wife with an unflinchingly honest and unquestionably relatable pen. Rice details her pain with such wry humor that her memoir was impossible to put down." Mom Egg Review
"One of my favorite authors is Nora Ephron. I especially love her book I Feel Bad About My Neck, which is a lovely, humorous look at growing older as a woman. Sadly, Nora is no longer with us so there are no more Ephron books to look forward to. In reading Gray Is the New Black: A Memoir of Self Acceptance (Otis Books, Seismicity Editions, June 2019) by Dorothy Rice however I think I have found my new Nora. Any woman over 50 years old should pick this up, because she will find insight into her own story in this insightful, bittersweet book." Beauty Info Zone
"I dare you not to find a piece of yourself in this book. If you have a complicated relationship with your mother, food, your hair, your body, your past self, or your current self, this book with resonate with you." ★★★★★ review
"The book is a personal story, but it resonates on a universal level with readers." Inside Sacramento
