Why did you make Alice menopausal or perimenopausal?

Well, I just, I mean, I'm, I'm of that age too.

I'm 51.

And I noticed over the last couple of years that, uh, any, and this was even with, with women, not, not specifically with men, but anything I said I was experiencing, um, I was told by other women, that's perimenopause.

So like everything, everything I was experiencing was sort of given that category of being perimenopause.

And I think it's great that in our society, we now talk about it more than it was, you know, 10, 15, 20 years ago.

And that it's a more common thing and women are claiming it.

okay so i love to end every discussion growing my ever-growing my super long tbr and i like to ask authors to share books with me could you tell us some of your favorite books, what you've currently reading, whatever you would like to share?
