Should definitely learn to read reviews before I buy books. I bought this because hey, even a twenty year old has times when she's just "not feeling it". The book is very mis-titled. It should be "...What every woman after menopause should know". I read it expecting it to be about mental status and life triggers... instead its' about hormone therapy and middle age. I gave it to my mom- she's about the right age. As for me, no thanks!

Not a good book. I am terribly disappointed with Judith for coming up with such misleading title and luring readers who come with hope but leave probably more damaged than they were to begin with. I got this book so that I could read this and understand what goes on in the mind of a woman when she is just not in the mood. Is there more to read in that statement or is it more matter of fact. Judith however failed to mention (conveniently) that this book is for women in their menopause or beyond. Women who are just not interested in being sexually active and the change in hormones isn't helping much. This is not for young couples in their late twenties or early thirties who somehow loose the urge in the busy daily life. I was hoping a book more on that lines given the title. The book talks about accepting the age factor, and doing something about it. Perhaps good for the age 35- and beyond.

After giving birth to my husband's and my third child I started to lose my sex drive. We went from three to five times a week to one. Both my husband and I weren't happy and I knew that there had to be something that I could do to help my once strong libido.
After reading this book I was disappointed. The information I read on this book was misleading. I actually ended up returning it to the book store.
I am in my late twenties and this book is better suited for those in their forties and older. Maybe some thirties depending on whether or not you have had to have a hysterectomy.
The woman who wrote this book you can tell is very well educated but I would have to say that she needs to learn how to title a book better so it's not so misleading.
I'm still looking for help with this issue. Help that I did not find at all with this book.

This book title is very misleading. It is not for the woman who is just “not in the mood”. It is for older women who are experiencing the effects of menopause or a hysterectomy. It isn’t about mood, it is an explanation of hormonal diminishment. Medical conditions notwithstanding, this book responds to a very small portion of the female population.
If you are in your thirties and wondering why you are not in the mood, this book has no relevance. I suppose if you are older, it is a good thing to find out that some additional testosterone will help you out. Dr. Reichman is reassuring in telling women that it just happens when we get older, and that we are not to believe that “it happens” and you will get over it. She also talks about the effects of prescription drugs, cancer, and inability to talk to our partners and doctors.
It didn’t help me in the least. I am still wondering why I am not in the mood.
