My Body Is A Big Fat Temple: An Ordinary Story of Pregnancy and Early Motherhood by Alena Dillon, Alena Dillon

5.0

Over the last couple years Dillon has written two books that I adored, so when I learned she was writing a memoir I definitely wanted to read it. And I have to say it was everything I expected and yet nothing I expected.

Dillon’s memoir on pregnancy and motherhood went from painfully honest to hilariously funny much in the way actual pregnancy and motherhood can. It was the book I wished I’d had when I was pregnant but also might have been a little too real.

This collection of essays brought back a lot of memories for me and had me laughing and cringing along. And it was another favorite of mine. At this point I’m here for any genre Dillon wants to write
