A hilarious short illustrated book filled with jokes about how goths handle parenting. Low-key similar vibes to an extent with the Fangs graphic novel so if you're a fan of that I suggest you give this one a try too just for the adorable illustrations and the silly jokes that had me giggling the whole time I was reading this!

Be still my aching gothic heart. This book is absolutely adorable. I love the art style used and the diversity shown. Goth so often is shown in one way, and it's encouraging to see that we are finally seeing the diversity the culture actually encompasses. And seeing it, even if it is in quite possibly the cutest parenting book I have ever seen. I am obsessed. I will definitely be checking this author and artist out more.

Though I am not yet a parent and could be categorized as "soft goth" at best, I loved this. Super cute. Super spooky.

This book was SO cute. It doesn't necessarily provide anything new to learn, more like reminders and letting parents know they're not alone in the struggles they face raising gremlins. It was positive, affirming, cute, and funny. This would make the perfect gift for a new goth parents. I can't wait to buy the physical copy for my bookshelf!

I'm a parent who brought my child with me to volunteer at horror conventions, where I was pleased and surprised to see so so many families with their children, including babies. Clearly, it's never too early to start sharing our love of genre.
The pictures are cute, the language is clever and fun, but my favorite thing is the section titles -- absolutely hilarious!! I highly recommend this for everyone who is able to think outside the boring, conventional box when it comes to parenting.
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this

THIS BOOK! OMG! I can't even put into words how much I enjoyed this book. The illustrations were so cute. There were pages of rhyming but not throughout, which was nice (not cheesy). The song lyric/title references were just a joy to see. I found myself laughing out loud many times. Quick read for busy goths with baby bats.
Perfect gift for a baby shower or new parents. I am cheering for this book's success. I will definitely be recommending it to the world of goths and their perspective or already existing crotchfruits! Cheers to the author and illustrator!

Thank you for the EArc Chronicle and NetGalley. Really cute little read about raising your kids as goths. I’m not a goth but this was entertaining and the illustrations were very cute.

5/5 Stars! Thank you, NetGalley and Chronicle Books for this eARC of Goth Parenting by Casey Gilly.

This was super cute and pretty fun to follow. Easy read and loved the fun illustration. This is definitely a book to get for my dark/dark humor friends - I have several in mind that I will want to gift this for them!

Very clever and quick easy read. Love this!

Thank you Netgalley for the advance reader copy of Goth Parenting by Casey Gilly in exchange for an honest review. While I don't have kids of my own and am not able to, my sister and my best friend do and they would love this book. I definitely liked that it gave me something to relate to as that's the type of parent I would have been and the type of aunt I am.

Omg- oh my goth! This was such a precious (but dark!) read. The illustrations made the book for me, I would love to have some of those framed on the wall of a nursery or give as a baby shower gift. The advice was solid as well, and humanized all the diverse aspects of parenting. I laughed and I picked up some food for thought, the perfect combination. Even if you're not goth you'll see a piece of yourself in this book.

And for those of us who aren't yet parents to humans, they do call out that cats are siblings too!

This was a cute, quick read that reminds you of the highs and lows of parenting and allows you to be different. The illustrations associated with each page are incredible and I was eager to see what the next one would show.

The MCR reference was much appreciated as was the cat’s are siblings stance.

While I am not a parent, I do have littles in my life and friends who are at the age where I’m expecting a pregnancy announcement- they’ll be receiving a copy of this book when that time comes

Thank you Netgalley for giving an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Now, am I a parent? No. Am I goth? Also no. But man did I enjoy this cute and informative book about parenting little bats! The illustrations were adorable, the content made me laugh, and now I’m debating if the goth way is my way for raising little vampires. I had such a blast!!

This is such a fun twist to parenting books/ parenting guides. I love how the the Casey Gilly doesn’t take herself too seriously and presents something that is both fun and informative. I like the lists and the chapter covers. 4.5/5

Thank you, #NetGalley for the ARC. All words are mine. This review is for an uncorrected copy. #GothParenting

I love different parenting books and this one is perfect for the goth couple! It isn't as much of a parenting book, per se, more of a this is your life with kids book. It's quirky and fun.

From the dedication to the last page, this book had me smiling (how very ungoth of me). Where was this book when I had my first kid??? The artwork, the humor, the journey through the ages, the prose.... I need a parenthood friend group of those who have read this book and will be using it as their guidebook / sanity saver. This book is as sweet as it is funny and my only complaint is that I don't have a hardcopy in my hands now.

This was such a fun read. Alt parents aren't usually included in cutesy baby books, so I appreciated this. Not only did I get a few laughs in, but it's also full of solid advice. Great read! 🦇

Fun and laughs aren’t generally associated with Goths 🖤 but this book made me laugh and want to be a goth again. I have always loved bats and skulls and black and now I can share that with my kids. Although I will admit I like hot pink too so I’m just multi faceted.

Goth Parenting was such a fun read! This would be a great gift for parents that like things a little on the dark side. It was very funny but also had some solid advice!

This was a joy to read. Not only is it filled with succinct parenting tips, but the illustrations are gorgeous. And the sprinkling of Gothic references throughout were perfectly timed. Overall an adorable, highly recommended read.

This was adorable and everything I wanted it to be! It was funny, I enjoyed all the goth references and the illustrations were so pretty! Thank you netgalley for the e arc.
