Do not miss this one! Notes From Her Fans! "I think you missed your calling. You should be a stand-up comic!" "If we go by the old adage, 'laughter is the best medicine', you could close the pharmacies down single handedly!" "Erma (Bombeck) would be so proud!" "Just what I enjoy most with my first coffee...delicious delusions!" "I laughed so hard at the 'he had to give himself a shot right in the wiener!' Can't wait to find the herbal libido boosters!" "Hilarious!" I love your stories!" "Oh Lord! I am laughing! This is real! This is good! Totally you!" "Turn off the TV, get out of Hollywood, and join a Vagina Monologue Tour!"

I did not find her humorous....at all. I gave it two stars for the title and kick ass book cover.

Imagine that you're sitting at your kitchen table on a Saturday night with your favorite cold beverage in your hand, and across from you is an insanely witty and gabby friend who has been there, rolled in that, ripped the t-shirt to shreds, and survived to tell the tale. And tell it she does, with complete candor and a point of view that will have you snorting with laughter. Jacqui Brown has never met a subject too sensitive to bare all about. Belly flab? Bring it on. Menopause? Puh-lease. I found myself immersed in every chapter, completely consumed by her honest and hilarious look at the trials and tribulations so many of us go through. At the end of every chapter I found myself looking to see what the next topic was. You'll enjoy this twisted romp through Jacqui's life and mind, and I'll bet her eyes-wide-open look at life's speed bumps will get you reflecting about your own way of viewing the world. Highly recommended!


5.0 out of 5 stars OMG - She said What? LOL!, June 25, 2012

Some of us recall finding open cartons of milk inexplicably placed in pantries by our mamas, the same mamas whose pinched-looking red faces beaded with sweat taking time-outs with their heads stuck into open freezers hoping for a quick cool down fix. How it was explained then was, "Your mom's going through The Change." The Change. Someday we as middle aged women would know The Change ourselves. And we would commiserate with our girlfriends who were our sisters in that menopausal madness that we kept among ourselves and our favourite "woman's doctor".

Well, Jacqui Brown rips the crocheted shawl off the shush-you-can't-say-that explanation of our common experience of womenhood and no holds barred dissects the shit out of our bodily functions and makes us laugh (and - I'm sure - some blush). This is a really, really funny book. And I mean non-stop funny. Nothing is sacred. Not the vagina. Not the husband. Not the insanity. Without giving too much away, I will say that menopause is just one aspect of the very, very interesting life (and recovery of events therein) of a former small-town girl from Ontario who took a leap of faith in her youth to move to California and about which she has written in this and previous books. I give "Bitch Please" 2 sagging buttcheeks up!

Jacqui Brown delivers another funny as hell story about real life and all the ups and downs that occur. I have read 4 her books already and enjoyed everyone of them.

"Erma Bombeck is probably sitting in heaven thinking, `What a delight that someone picked up where I left off' only with a 21st century take on life. Each story is hilarious and when retold with Brown's stand-up humor, well, you just have to read it for yourself! Absolutely hilarious!"

This is one of the funniest, most down-to-earth, terrific books I've ever had the pleasure of reading. From the first page I was cracking up. And I mean belly laughing!!!! This book is full of wit and humor and thoughtfulness and wonderfully naughty anecdotes. As menopause is (please God) still about a decade away for me, I'm sooo happy I read this so that I'll know that if I turn into an insane lunatic, that's okay and to be expected. ;)

Sincerely ladies, you will not regret reading this book. In fact, you'll be so happy that you did you'll probably tell every girl you know about it and insist that they read it too. It's THAT good.

I highly recommend this for all the ladies out there. And guys, if you are having trouble figuring out why your once-kind woman has turned into a babbling, knife-wielding, sweaty lunatic, read this book and you'll understand why. :)

Simply wonderful!!

Before you sit down to read this, and if you are of a certain age, you might want to empty your bladder and adjust your Poise pad. Jacqui Brown takes a humorous look at the joys of menopause and spells them all out here.
You will laugh out loud and people will stare. That's okay.
