As long as we escaped her appointment as a Senator or a Supreme Court judge, it's all good.

Celebrity cookbooks, celebrity children books, celebrity poetry, celebrity memoirs., celebrity quantum physics textbooks, celebrity power forwards on the Knicks team..... to be continued.

Celebrity anthology even worse. All the writing is by someone else.

I've got nothing against Caroline Kennedy. There is nothing wrong with putting together a collection of your favorite poetry and using your famous name to sell it.
But neither is it a tremendous achievement. It doesn't make her a poet.
So, I'm not mocking it, as I did with Bristol Palin's memoirs, for example. But I see no point in buying it.

H.M.F.S.I.T.S.K.O.A.F.J? There's just nothing else that could be said.

Well done Caroline Kennedy. Your parents and brother would be so proud of you. I'm sorry you didn't run in NY. I'd like to see you in politics.

Thank you Caroline, for being able to get out what we all feel. Seriously, thank you. It is soothing to know that others from our generation feel the same about things but we don't have a voice.

Creating an anthology of poems centered around the stages of a woman's life.

Centered around is geometrically impossible.

Only in our universe. In hers, it happens all the time.

How many times does she write "you know"?

i find it interesting that ALL of the Kennedy women have a strong similarity in their appearance, that has GOT to be genetic. Thinness. Premature grey hair. Premature wrinkling. They all eventually resemble their matriarch Rose Fitzgerald.

"She Walks in Beauty" - what an ORIGINAL title.

I wonder if she wrote a poem about Massachusetts electing Scott Brown.

...Yes, I AM still a little bitter about her not running.

Better Massachusetts than NY, but we had a better field, you know.

This is nice. I'm glad Caroline is using her time in such a productive way.
