I absolutely devoured this book faster than I wanted to! I wanted more. It was like being with my besties. I had the best time reading and relating to the cast of characters. The writing was smart and witty. I found myself laughing and nodding my head so often.

What Early Readers Are Saying
Vulnerable, uproarious, and full of humor and insight, Are You There, God? It's Me, Menopause celebrates female friendship while reframing midlife change as renewal.
It's Sex and the City for the menopause set!
Hilarious… Are You There, God? It's Me, Menopause is the ‘practical magic’ of midlife.
This book was superb. I couldn't recommend it enough as a woman going through menopause. This gem helped me tremendously. The main character of Julia was amazing, and I found myself nodding along to her truly brilliant story.
Incredible!! I couldn't put this book down. The interesting characters and descriptive scenes grabbed my attention from the very beginning.
I recommend all people going through menopause read this for the laugh, and so you don't feel alone.
Snuggle up with this book, and be prepared to ride the end with a note of permission.
