review 1: I couldn't get past the first few chapters of this book. I'm not a priss or a prude. I do drink and swear, because I'm an adult, and don't think I have perfect mothering skills. But I do think that allowing your grade schooler to call another child a douche bag on the play structure is horrible parenting. If she hates being around her kids so much she shouldn't have had them. And the writing itself is just one big run on sentence of someone trying to impress us with as many trashy immature phrases as she can. Bor-ring.
review 2: Hilarious! Almost died laughing! Right on the mark! I'd love to spend the day with the author, Nikki Knepper (at least that's what her mom calls her!)....I could just go on and on...OK, I will. I think I would laugh so much so, th... moreat afterward I would feel as though I did an ab workout, which is far more than I do now!I got a new Paper White Kindle for my summer reading collection and this was the first book I chose to read. While poolside in Key West, I could not contain my hysterical laughter. I'm certain I sold at least two copies right there, as the ladies around me were dying to know what I was reading. On the flight home, I KNOW I sold another one, as I was bursting out laughing so often; I really could not stop to save my life. At this point the lady next to me began reading over my shoulder, needing to know the author and name of the book--clearly, the rest was history!It is only fair to add, it's not for the faint of heart, lots of swearing, written by mothers for mothers, with a great sense of humor. If that is your cup of tea, or wine, better yet, then you will LOVE this book!Oh, the chapter about her cleaning her toilets and bathrooms left me in STITCHES, as I have three sons. At times, I literally felt like Dr. Dawes in Mary Poppins, in that I may literally die laughing! What a way to go!Thank you, Nicole Knepper for getting my summer off to a rollicking start, especially after the crappiest year of my life! I'll be waiting, Darling, so have some wine, scrub those potties, and TRY to focus on your laundry, while you dream up your next book. I don't think I'm very virtuous on the patience scale; so, HURRY UP! It's time for another gut-busting good read! less
