The parenting genre is never going to be the same (Jancee Dunn, author of How Not to Hate Your Husband After Having Kids) after this candid and hilarious collection of essays on motherhood from the award-winning television comedy writer and producer of 2 Broke Girls and The King of Queens, who swears she loves her kidswhen shes not hiding from them. Some women feel that motherhood is a calling and their purpose on earth. They somehow manage to make pregnancy look effortless, bring out the beauty in a screaming child, and keep the back seat of their cars as spotless as their kitchens. And then there are women like Liz Astrofwho originally had children because everyone else was. In this blunt and side-splittingly funny book of essays, Liz Astrof embraces the realities of motherhood (and womanhood) that no one ever talks about: like needing to hide from your kids in your closet, your car, or a yoga class on the other side of town, letting them eat candy for dinner because you just cant deal, to the sheer terror of failing them or at the very least losing them in a mall. And sometimes, many times, wondering if the whole parenting thing wasnt for you. Perfect for fans of Lets Pretend This Never Happened and I Heart My Little A-Holes, Stay-At-Work Mom is an soul-baring and honest look at parenting and relationships for moms who realize that motherhood doesnt have to be your entire lifejust an amazing part of it.
