Slummy Mummy

Beach read worthy

While its a typical chick lit book, I found myself reading the entire book while on vacation. Its a light, funny read and the characters are memorable.

Slummy Mummy

I saw this book had gotten a good review and I wanted to read it. I got it at a good price, but once again it was a book that I could have waited to get in the library..

Lots of Fun

This book is a fun, lighthearted read - but one that also has well drawn characters and deep insights into motherhood. Some of the situations you have to take with a grain of salt, but most of the experiences the protagonist has are spot on. I am a mother so I can appreciate much of what she writes and I laughed out loud many times. I would definitely recommend this book to all moms.

Sooooo Funny

For anyone who wrote a negative review I would have to first wonder if they have children at all or second wonder if they have a sense of humor. This book is great to relate to for anyone struggling to keep it all together and can laugh at themselves! LOVE IT.

Sometimes boring, but made me think

This review is for the audio version. Overall, I enjoyed this book and found myself thinking about different bits of this book during the day when I wasn't reading it. The characters were pretty believable, and Lucy's struggles as a mom were very believable. I appreciated that she was not a perfect mother, but did desire to do her best. Throughout the story I could tell that Lucy was developing more sense of what was important to her in life, and started trying to improve herself. I wasn't sure what path Lucy would take until the very end. This story had a positive message overall, had a happy ending, and was laugh out loud funny at times. On the other hand, it was boring at times, or hard to follow as the narrator went from the present, to a long rambling thought, to a memory, and back to the present. Sometimes that got a little confusing and the message was lost somewhere. But as long as I paid close attention, I found the thoughts and dialogue to be very witty. This story was not just a funny fast paced chick lit, I felt there was a deeper level going on here. As far as the audio part of it goes, the narrator was great and each character was distinct and alive.
