Thank you! In case you or anyone here has experience with both, would you recommend this over Rabbi Forst’s “A Woman’s Guide to the Laws of Niddah”?

Both the two volume green set and the single volume "Women's Guide..." are amazing and pretty much all you need. The two volume set is more in detail, and the Women's volume is geared towards women, and written in such a way as to speak to her anxieties. But it has less detail with certain halachos, enough to get into one volume. I think I prefer the green ones, but for a newlywed, I would certainly recommend the Women's Guide.

Tahara K'Halacha. You can get it in English. It's really clear and very descriptive. Chassidish

I had both.
I love information so the green books were better for me because they have a lot written. The woman's book is shorter with less detail.

It gives most opinions and in a lot of cases suggests to follow the more stringent one. But the options are there.

Depends on your derech and minhag I am a kallah teacher, and I like Rebetzin Tehila Abromovs book. If you are Sephardic, I like taharat Yosef as well which follows Hacham Ovadia Yosef.

Another vote for this one. I remember it being very well-organized.

Can you post the title of Rebbetzin Abramov’s book?

I would NOT recommend this book. It is extremely machmir and makes you feel like everything you do is wrong. It also does not really have any clear answers to questions and always says to ask your Rav at the end of the day. I am yeshivish and had a very yeshivish/chassidish kallah teacher and a lot the things he says are not okay are considered fine by my kallah teacher and Rav.
I bought this as a newlywed and it stressed me out.
I bought Rabbi Martin's book after marriage. I have the English one and my husband has the Hebrew one. It is amazing. Clear and to the point. I would highly recommend Rabbi Martin's book to everyone:

Ohel Sarah is great
The mikvah on grove in the five towns even gives it out as a gift to kallahs when they use the mikvah for the first time

There was a pink and peach one that was so awful that I kept it for years because I said when I die I should be buried with it because I kept nidda despite winner lines like “the girl does not have to know anything more than this is the way she can get pregnant”. (This was the text mu kallah teacher taught from, though admittedly not that particular line.) after a few years though I put it in sheimos because it was so terrible I never wanted my children to be poisoned by it!!!
Something like that does not belong in a Yiddishe home. (And I am a heimish Bais yaakov girl.) it was appalling.
