Recommendations for 90s & 100s

I read All the Queen’s Men which I think is in the list, but I really enjoyed it and I didn’t think I would.

I haven’t tested the tagging feature, so I’m not sure if this will work, but I know @patty finished Lifetime already. I think she read some that weren’t on the list for this age range so she might have suggestions!

I read The 100-Year-Old man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared for 90/100 age  group but I think it’s on the list. It’s pretty entertaining. If you’ve read that one, there’s a sequel called The Accidental Further Adventures of the Hundred-Year-Old Man.

I read The Book of Charlie by David Von Drehle, which may fit in the category. Charlie White lived to age 109. When he was already well into his 100s the author, a neighbor, had numerous conversations with him about his memories and how he thrived through all the changes that happened during his century of life. The book is more a review of Charlie’s life than about his life in his 100s, so I used it for the Character Aging prompt, but I think it would work for either (or both!). Charlie had a remarkable life and there are lessons for all of us in the book. And, it’s only about 200 pages if you’re looking for something on the shorter side.

I really enjoyed Have You Seen Luis Velez?

It may be on the inter-generational list, but would work here also.  The blind neighbor had such a rich life history and society today tends to ignore that.  She was also such a support to her young neighbor when he needed to feel needed!
