Julianna StricklandFirst to rec“If you have kids or are thinking about having kids, this is essential reading.”
Wynne“I found this book to be hilarious and delightful. I have now read it twice. I am not a parent so can’t speak exactly to how true it is to the experience of being a mom, but the book feels very raw/vulnerable. I feel like she talked about parts of motherhood that I don’t always see discussed (the tedium of it, the experience of explaining terrible things to tiny humans). It’s great on audio!!”
