An Evening With Martha Boone – Thursday, June 6

Blue Cypress Books 8123 Oak St, New Orleans

Mother Charity is the sequel to The Big Free and continues the gripping story of an intern in surgery and all the […]

Mother Charity was a joy to read. It was so well written and brought back many warm memories for me of life in New Orleans. You did such a wonderful job of touching on so many things that make the city and region so unique and bringing the culture and characters to life on the page. Your depiction of Leeodus rivals Toole’s Ignatius J. Reilly.  Congratulations on your entertaining novel/memoir! – Jane

“The Unfettered Urologist” by Martha B. Boone M.D. dives into the surprising connection between excess body fat, particularly belly fat, and a decrease in male sexual health and performance. The science behind it? Elevated estrogen levels caused by extra weight, which Martha explains effectively, can lead to lower testosterone. This, in turn, impacts muscle tone and, most importantly for me, hinders sexual performance. That revelation was the wake-up call I needed to finally prioritize weight loss.

While the sex-related impact was my personal motivator, the book offers a wealth of valuable information beyond that specific topic. If you’re looking for a fresh perspective on sexual and overall health and a science-backed nudge in the right direction, “The Unfettered Urologist” is definitely worth a read.

As a Louisiana native, I loved reading about Elizabeth’s daily challenges while honing her surgical skills and relationships at Charity Hospital. The setting was accurate and immersive, the characters quirky and colorful, and it had me craving a big shrimp po-boy! Boone’s writing grabbed me from the first page, and I enjoyed the book immensely! I highly recommend. I was provided an early copy of this book, Mother Charity, by the publisher for review.
