"Mama Needs a Minute!" had me feeling so many different ways. On one hand, if you read to break away from your everyday life, then DO NOT READ THIS. However, if you are looking for a relatable book, you want to stop feeling like you are all alone in your daily struggles and frustrations, if you sometimes just need to laugh at the daily ridiculousness and realize that you are not alone... in that case I 100% RECOMMEND this book. There were times I laughed because Starr's story was funny, or so relatable that all I could do was laugh. Sometimes the laugh was a "yep! I get it!". Then there were times where the words were hard to read because... Why does it have to be like this? Why is it so hard? Why does it have to be an argument instead of a genuine willingness to help? I am not even sure that I could rehash the whirlwind of emotions (good, bad, and indifferent) that I felt while reading this.

I felt this was well done, and it was structured in a way that we are reading a story, but it was broken up by little skits, or AIM messenger windows (which had me dying laughing), or candid conversations, and cute little pictures to illustrate... well... the Peanut Butter.

I would recommend this, and I will be gifting this for birthdays and holidays next year.
