Confessions of a Scary Mommy: An Honest and Irreverent Look at Motherhood: The Good, the Bad, and the Scary by Jill Smokler

2.0

---

You know, I actually really like ScaryMommy as a website, and I also liked the other Scary Mommy Book...but this one seemed really..."extra". Some of the confessions weren't just "Oh gee, I'm going against the mommy grain" but actually kind of,...well, scary and unnecessarily crass.

Jill herself has her funny moments, but this version didn't have the humor that helps you swallow the usual "scary mommy" diatribes. Instead this one was a bit more harsh and uncomfortable.

My overall review though is mostly, "Meh".
