5.0 out of 5 stars Whatever! A Baby Boomer's Journey Into Middle Age, May 31, 2006

By	Pamela R. Purifoy - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book by veteran journalist Beverly Mahone tells it like it 'tis! It's funny, inspirational and reflective of a woman whose life has seen many ups and downs, but has gracefully weathered thru them all. A must read for those of us "of a certain age!" AND, for the men who love us too! ;-)
An enjoyable, educational and entertaining book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too much scripture., September 22, 2007

By	JudyCA "cat lover" (California) - See all my reviews

For me there was too much scripture and religious talk. I wasn't expecting that. Just didn't seem like there was much to the story. Very small book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Informative, January 30, 2007

By	Nathaniel D. Gibbs - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As a member of the opposite sex, this book helped me understand the changes I'm seeing my wife go through. It was straight-forward and candid and actually enjoyable to read. This book is a must for any man who is having to deal with hot flashes and night sweats and mood swings. The book puts it all into perspective.
