Description
Blissfully Blended Bullshit is a witty, engaging, refreshingly candid chronicle of a modern family’s journey as they blend households. We follow Eckler as her partner and his two children move in with her and her daughter. Then, thanks to a reverse vasectomy, they add a baby to the mix. Readers go along for the ride in this poignant, often hilarious tale, as everyone attempts to navigate their new roles: the children, the in-laws, the exes, the ex-in-laws, and even the dog.
Lighthearted and intimate, this is an indispensable story about a family determined to make blended splendid, and the juicy truth of what it’s really like behind closed doors in what is rapidly becoming a typical family makeup. Still, if Eckler had to blend again, would she?

I just have one word for it..... Enlightening. Her use of words and her narration of events makes it like you are there living the life. It made me see the struggles of having a blended family even if love still exist in the same family. Her descriptions and expressions of emotions are great. The book is like a life manual for individuals intending to become a blended home. It's all ranging hormones until it becomes real. lol. It's a must-read.
