Nobody Told Me: Poetry and Parenthood by Hollie McNish

5.0

---

This is the most realistic, beautiful, sad, and true account of being a mom I have ever read. Hollie’s poems are an absolute perfect representation of the emotions and contradictions of motherhood. There is something so strange and gratifying about reading words written by someone else that perfectly encapsulate emotions and experiences I had myself. I highly recommend this book to every mom I know.
