Book Review: Literary Mama

Welcome to the latest stop on the Blogging Book Tour for Literary Mama: Reading for the Maternally Inclined.

"What?" you might ask. "I thought Literary Mama was a Web site!" And indeed it is. But it is also now a book, a collection of the best essays culled from the Web site. And they are truly, truly fab.

Many, many books line the walls of MomBrain's home. But only a few have many, many passages underlined, and this is one of them. I couldn't help myself. So much of it spoke to my experiences as a mother and a writer that the old purple pen got quite a workout.

I <heart> this book. It's an amazing combination of humor, grief and grace that had me alternately weeping and smiling. Love it, love it, love it.
