3 New Novels About Motherhood I Inhaled
My neck hurts from all the nodding.
First things first, a couple of requests! If you’ve read my new book Hello, Cruel World!, I’d be oh so grateful if you’d leave an Amazon review. (Or just a rating with no review — that is super helpful too!) Most people who read books don’t leave them, and I get it because who has the time, but they really do help sell books. The most recent review starts with this: “My main goal as a parent is to prepare my kids to live fulfilling, interesting, and happy lives as adults. This book is a research-based handbook for just that.” Love.
Second: I’m working on an essay about the benefits of unconventional sleeping arrangements. If you don’t sleep in the same bed as your partner, and it’s an arrangement that works well, I would love to hear from you. You wouldn’t need to be named in the piece.

One of my favorite parts of summer vacation is the extra reading time. This year I haven’t had a lot of free time for books, but I was on vacation last week, visiting friends in D.C. and exploring West Virginia, and I delved into three new novels I’d been looking forward to for a while. They did not disappoint.
