Many thanks to NetGalley, Simon & Schuster | Simon Element for gifting me a physical and digital ARC of this fascinating non-fiction book by Ej Dickson. All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 5 stars!
This is a meticulously-researched book into what constitutes "good" moms and "bad" moms, and the inherent problems in even thinking about those distinctions. What makes this book shine is the humor and personal notes that fill the book as well, as we learn the author's own motherhood experience. We as a society are so quick to judge, and this book will make you think, even if you are on a different side of the aisle from the author. Each chapter explores a different type of "bad" mom, nudging us to really explore the effects of race and class on our judgmental views. A must read book that will bother enlighten and entertain!
