Between Interruptions
Between Interruptions - Thirty Women Tell the Truth about Motherhood - edited by Cori Howard
Thank you Key Porter! This was an ARC from the 2007 Book Expo, and I loved it. I called my best friend to read sections out loud, it was that funny in places. There are essays on everything from being a working mom, being a stay at home mom, turning into your father, post partum depression, only children, and finding friends with the same parenting values you hold. Not every essay tickled my fancy or funnybone, but out of thirty, I'd say I liked 28 of them. A lot. And tolerated the other 2. Denise Ryan perfectly pierces the belief that the world needs another Erma Bombeck (back to your blogs, mommies, and stop trying to land a newspaper column!). I could probably quote from every essay, but instead I say: Read this book if you have children, or are thinking about having children. Buy it, borrow it, it doesn't matter which. Just make sure you read it!
