"Christy Heitger-Ewing's book on perimenopause is no hot fl ash in the pan. It's damn funny, personal, informative, and did I say damn funny? And, guys, let's face it, they call it perimenopause-not periwomenopause-because men need to pause before speaking during this event. Don't believe me. Read this book! Think of all the money you'll save by NOT paying a divorce attorney."

"A must-read for women in the menopausal stage of life! Christy Heitger-Ewing offers a comical take on the adventure through 'the change.' You'll be giggling right through your hot flashes!"

Billie Woods, Bloomington, IN

"So much fun to read and very relatable! Christy Heitger-Ewing's anecdotes really make you feel like you're in the 'club, ' and for those of us without a large group of women friends to commiserate with, this book lets you know you're not going through this change alone."

Marissa Coffenberry, Florence, KY

"Risky and risqué, Christy Heitger-Ewing's hilariously honest, personal, informed, and wise book Why Did I Walk into This Room? will reassure every reader who wants to know that her questions about life as a grown-up woman are being heard and being shared. Sharply shameless, Heitger-Ewing's real-life conversations echo and amplify our own; her unflinching approach to everything women have been told not to discuss in public makes her confrontation of issues ranging from sex, anxiety, chin-hairs, and self-compassion essential."
