I might be biased because I have loved Natasha Leggero for years, and have also recently become a mother. So, this checks a lot of boxes for me.

Natasha Leggero approaches motherhood (and this book) with an honesty and hilarious accuracy that is very on brand. It's refreshing in comparison to a lot of the standard "new mom" content that is all rose coloured glasses and gratitude. She delves into such things as the normalcy of loving your kid while not having to love other people's kids (too true), the annoyances of breastfeeding and pumping, and the hardships of IVF. Her discussions with and tales of parenting with her husband Moshe were hilarious and very akin to my experiences with my husband. I found myself reciting excerpts to him and saying "sound familiar?" fairly often.

There's a lot to love in this book, and a lot to relate to as a new mom. I'm grateful for her voice and message, but I'm mostly grateful for the laughs.

I have always enjoyed Natasha’s comedy and was looking forward to this book. It didn’t disappoint! It’s a quick and very funny read. The chapter where she interviews her husband may be my favourite.
