This review is from: The Baby Boomers Guide to Menopause (Paperback)

Sally's book is a lot of fun and a good laugh. I love the scene in the drug store, and the tip to write middle-of-the-night ideas in lipstick on the mirror is wonderful! She's captured what going through "the change" is all about - and how important it is to maintain your sense of humor, even when you've lost your keys and your mind and gained pounds from just looking at food. I've told my husband that it's required reading... and he's been laughing out loud too! Thanks Sally!
