Murder Plays House

by Ayelet Waldman

I love this fictional family.

Confessions of a Slacker Mom

by Muffy Mead-Ferro

I did not expect to like this book, but in the end it was probably one of the best parenting books I've read.

Dedication

by Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus.

I appreciated the shift in format from their two previous books, The Nanny Diaries and Citizen Girl, but ultimately I found this book predictable and kind of trite. It also unearthed a lot of pain from high school and junior high and reminded me that boys are dumb.

I probably would have liked this a lot better if I had read it, rather than listened to it because then it would have taken up 2 or 3 hours of my life, not 8 or 9.

Baby Laughs

The Naked Truth About the First Year of Motherhood

by Jenny McCarthy.

I like this book. I liked Belly Laughs too. I just put Life Laughs on hold at the public library. So there.
