Love this modern, inverted take on the “stepford wives” and “don’t worry, darling”. An interesting read that tackles gender norms and the historically gendered division of labor.

Stepford Husbands. Not bad. It felt like very little actually happened.

Note: I don’t have kids so this probably didn’t hit me as hard, but still Very torn on this one because it was oh so real feeling and I could see lots of women being too infuriated to read it or enjoy it. I still think men and women could benefit from reading this one - lots of good discussions on invisible work in the home.
