Hilarious, relatable, informative. This is a hilarious book about the ups and downs of people going through the stages of menopause. Full of fun quizzes, coloring pages and information.

Thank you to Walter Foster Publishing, Shirley Serban, and NetGalley for allowing me to preview this title before its publication date.

This was a lot more fun than I was expecting! It is a silly book with fun activities such as a maze, word find, crossword puzzles, and coloring pages (and more!). This was difficult to truly enjoy as an ebook (converted to pdf and using an Apple pencil made the experience better) but I can see this being amazing in print. This would be an excellent gift for someone that is really struggling with menopause to brighten their day. The activities were surprisingly relaxing bc it takes a tongue-in-cheek approach without dismissing the real struggle.

This is not only for our loved ones and selves with menopause but for those who do not understand menopause fully.
Each partner, employer and younger friend must be given one.

Simply hilarious and fun. As a nearly 45 year old I can relate to the subject of menopause/perimenopause 100%. This would make a very fun birthday gift for most women with a sense of humor over the age of 40. I’d buy it for sure.

**Thanks to the author and publisher for the e-arc I received via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.**

This is a very cute and light hearted look at menopause. Lots of information is present but in a way that is fun and engaging. Lots of cute puzzles and things to color as you go through this book. Perfect gift for all the menopausal and perimenopausal women in your life.

This looks like a fun book to gift to your girlfriends who may be struggling during what can be a difficult time. I can see this in a gift basket with some wine and snacks!

Honestly, I think this would make a great gift for a friend going through menopause (or peri-menopause). It gives a light-hearted spin on an often challenging and depressing time. There are some great insights but I also love the fact that symptoms I thought were completely random were mentioned, so that helps to normalize the weirdness. There is a good variety of activities throughout the book too, so feel there is a little something for everyone.

Color Me Menopausal is an activity book to help deal with the craziness and chaos of peri and full blown menopause. It's funny, it's educational, it's validating and affirming that we're not alone in this madness. There are puzzles and quizzes and word finds and random Shakespearean quotes and much more packed in with tips and guidance.

A perfect gift for 40+women

~Many thanks to NetGalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review~

I smiled and or giggled the entire time I perused this book. The illustrations are terrific, the games fun - just an overall great book! It makes light of a subject not touched upon a lot, which is what makes it so great!
