Description
Navigate through pages filled with fun activities, like finding you menopause superheroine name based on your birth month, spot the differences between the way you used to party and how you might get down in perimenopause in “House Partay!” and embark on a maze to “Stop the Leak!” and find the restroom without getting stuck in a traffic jam or in the middle of pilates class. Engage your brain with word searches—look for all the different names menopause has been given throughout the years—and color your way to calm.
Get tips for planning your own perimenopause party and color in what you and your partner might look like in bed (hint: you’re the one who is sweating it out). The journey continues with activities to share with a friend like “Snakes and Ladders of Menopause” game and reflect on the wild ride by writing in your highs and lows on “The Menopausal Rollercoaster.”
Here’s a sneak peek into the types of side-splitting activities that await you:
- Coloring and drawing to express your creativity and calm your nerves
- Spot the difference and memory games—don’t worry, they’re easy
- Mazes to get you from point A to point B!
- Word searches and word scrambles to keep your mind sharp (what brain fog?)
- Quizzes and funny fill-in-the-blanks to test your knowledge and document your feelings
- Tips on all the things you need to know and even some you don’t
As you navigate the whirlwind that is perimenopause and menopause, Color Me Menopausal is your constant companion that will keep you laughing.

I loved it.
Thank you to NetGalley and Walter Foster Publishing for my ARC.
I absolutely loved this book.
I will be ordering one for my sister for Christmas and one for myself so i can fill it in, there's only 14 months between us but I'm at the end of perimenopause and she's near the start.
I love the mix of facts, pep talk and puzzles.
It's a great combination of activities and information.
Awesome book!
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.
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
