THE BEST SUMMER READ FOR SAHM's THAT YOU CAN'T PUT DOWN!!!!
Our book club of 14 mom's just finished, 'The Book of Mom' by Taylor Wilshire. It is hilarious. About a SAHM that crashes and burns out loses her passion to life, is stuck in her marriage and how she finds balance and her passions back. We all loved it--and we never agree on anything. It is packed with Oprah-like tools for a more authentic life--which I am not so into like yoda and gratitude journalling. But it is a perfect beach read, have you read it?

We read that book in our book club too!! We had the same response--one of our mom's was really changed by it, it saved her marriage. I thought that it was so funny and felt like I was the main charcter at times--like it was written for me.

I don't get alot of me time to read these days, but this sounds like exactly what I need! Thanks, I will see if they have it at the library!

Okay, you convinced me. I ordered it used from Amazon today, so I should have the book in a week or so! Library didn't have it. I am excited though!

Isn't that book so amazing!!! I love the idea of self-help fiction. reading a novel and getting insighs on life, dwelving into your spirit to find answers. I think this is a perfect recommendation!

Okay, so I ended up buying it after you all suggested it. I LOVED IT!!! I couldn't put it down. Read it in one weekend, which is amazing with a toddler for me to finish anything that fast!

THANK YOU!!!

This is a perfect reommendation! This book is so fun but with substance and meaning! I love that Wilshire's books are self-help fiction. Getting insight while laughing and being entertained. I enjoyed her first book too, about a young woman looking for her soul-mate and finding her authentic self along the way. Her books are so cool!!!
