There are nice pearls of wisdom and warm fuzzies all around… I was indeed inspired by her headstand anecdote… but the privilege screams loud in this one… 

Some of it I was a little offended by, because she groups ALL women into her successful white lady writer demographic. I scoffed at a lot of generalizations made and rolled my eyes at attempts at being relatable. She seems to think all working moms are in the same battle together, but she has a loving husband/father to her kids, and totally ignores that as if she has been doing all the work! I imagine the writer’s schedule and royalties help a lot! There was a facelift comment that was trying to be relatable that made me laugh, as if the facelift is just the natural course of aspiration for all of us. I may have said “ok boomer” to the book once. XD 

Anyyyyyway, it’s a light-hearted cozy Sunday read that will make you all reminiscent and maybe want to call your mother. :)  (in like 3 layers of irony, my mother gave me this book because I am a bibliophile, saying: “I just couldn’t get into it”)
