Mommies Who Drink Sometimes Also Write

This memoir of new motherhood woudn’t be something I’d ever expect to pick up, but I did. Why? Because the author read early versions of it in my writing group, and her work frequntly left us in tears - usually from laughing. Not that it has many sad moments, but as any new mom knows, the whole deal arrives swaddled in emotion. All around it’s a charming read.
From my Amazon review: “How does one resolve a decision your heart knows is right, but which threatens the rest of your being? Here, Brett knows having a husband, child, and family was the right choice, but she’d like a second opinion. What follows is a story of a woman searching for the answer she knows it out there. The answer that is, “yes. Yes. Yes!”
