"Ms. Delohery, who identifies as queer and is raising a 13-year-old with her partner, said the book had resonated strongly with her friends who are in long-term relationships."

"Rachel Yoder, 45, an author whose book “Nightbitch” takes up themes of motherhood and creative freedom, said she and her best friend had been sending each other screenshots of passages from the book."

To be fair, though, a sane and healthy society would just ban this stuff and arrest anyone trying to distribute it

This book was a suggestion to me by another popular book store company based on my past book purchases. I purchased this book on Kindle for my vacation read. Being 48 and a mom of three, I thought I might be able to relate to the main character and the description was interesting, but I certainly can not relate to this character. Initially, I was put off by the raunchy sexual commentary. I did not find it sexy, I found it gross. I found this main character to be incredibly frivolous and selfish, not to mention a bit idiotic. She made bad decision after bad decision and I just could not understand the point. I just really found myself disgusted with her and could not finish the book. I regret the purchase.

Our book club chose this based on reviews and our desire to read a "sexy" book for summer fun. It was universally hated by everyone in the club, ranging in age from 40 to 73. Words used to describe it: "Waste of time, disgusting, raunchy, NOT SEXY, depressing, unlikeable characters, no redeeming value" -- among others, but you get the gist from those.

Save your money and your time and find a book that adds value to your life instead of this verbose, unpleasant read.

Self-indulgent and, well, gross

This book started off well with some nicely written sentences and turns of phrase. But then it descended into the boring, selfish, and frankly disgusting sexual obsessions of a woman experiencing peri-menopause as if she were the first woman on earth ever to go through it. I finished this book only because it was my book club selection for the month. I’m sorry I wasted time and money on it.

Terrible, selfish, awful main character. Absolute garbage from start to finish. There are so many better books with female main characters going through menopause. I only finished because I was rooting for her downfal
