I am enjoying myself so much at the midlife banquet, your dish included! I’d add Lioness by Emily Perkins, Hagitude by Dr Sharon Blackie and Deborah Levy’s trilogy to the feasting table.

I just started your latest book and have to say one little detail jumped out: the mention that at 46, women 10-20 years your senior appeared not to like you. Your explanation of why that may have been was interesting, but my first thought after doing the math was: ohhh....56-66, that is exactly when postmenopausal women stop feeling like they have to be "nice" and "liked". While it may have felt personal to you, it could have been a very global "no F*%$#s left to give" (a common statement in the menopause blogs, ha).

I LOVE reading about women enjoying their lives and doing whatever the hell they want. More more more! xo

I'm grateful to experience women writing candidly about their personal experiences during the stages of menopause. It's not always easy, but I see it as a third phase of life with so much growing left to do.

I’m hoping to live long enough to see you all write your Old Lady books.
