Review by Debbie Stoller
Bust Magazine, 6 September 2024

“By bravely telling her story in this relatable, informative, and ultimately hopeful read, Pallant is sure to help those suffering from PCOS feel less alone. If only it had been around when she was young.”

Excerpts from reviews on Goodreads

“I’m 22 with PCOS, diagnosed when I was 17. This book changed my life and perspective on living with PCOS. Even with all the internet posts, diets, videos, I have never felt more seen and understood than while reading this book.”

“[This book] shows the historical neglect of women’s health issues and the dangerous consequences of the one-size-fits-all approach to medical treatment traditionally applied to both men and women.”

“I highly recommend this book not only to those who want to learn about PCOS but also to anyone who wants to better understand how women’s lives are affected by medical research and treatments…”

from SMS Nonfiction Book Reviews

“I knew that women’s health wasn’t studied as much as men’s health, but I didn’t understand to what extent. For this reason alone, this book should be in every library and women’s health clinic library to further the education.”

    Next up for Smudgeworks Press is Andrew Amster’s novel, Unsealed. In the last days of their high school senior year, a group of friends had what seemed a harmless idea. They would each write down a secret. The secrets are placed together in an envelope, and the envelope is sealed. After ten years, the envelope is opened. And now, the police are involved.
