Dare I Say It

“Refreshingly real.”—People Magazine

“Winningly memoiristic. . . .

“In a society that values youth above all else, Watts celebrates women’s inherent value, no matter their age.”—Kirkus Reviews

“I stand in admiration of Naomi Watts for tackling the verboten subject of menopause. She is frank, funny, and fearless. Women all around the world will be grateful for her guiding light, as I know I am. Naomi is an American hero (even though no one really knows where she’s actually from).”—Chelsea Handler, New York Times bestselling author of Life Will Be the Death of Me. . . and You Too!
