Welcome to Litsy!

Love this book! Jen Mann is one of the funniest moms out there. She tells us stories of her trials of being a suburban mom and wife. From rushing out of the house in pajamas because she forgot to pick up her son from school, to school to her daughter asking if she, too, will have hair on her "china" just like her mom, Jen weaves pee-in-your-pants stories of her life and those around her she just wants to punch in the throat. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

She lives! …I live? I‘m alive… still. Again.

True story. This summer was hard. I missed Litsy. I missed my pen pals. I missed it all. But I‘m back for now (at least until the next mental crisis).

Hi friends. 😌

Love the title, quick read, and had a couple LOLs. Other than that just ok, she's a blogger and that's what it felt like I was reading. Her just bitching about other soccer moms basically, nothing particularly hilarious or poignant.

I agree with Mann, many of these people need to be punched in the throat. And why is mommy culture so toxic and just plain horrible?
Funny stories, cringe-worthy moments, and pretty relatable situations.

This was quite a funny read. I am not very familiar with the life style described, but I do enjoy her descriptions of it. I live in a different kind of suburb, and I hate it, but I appreciate that the author can both love and hate her suburb. This collection of essays had me laughing, which is always a good kind of read. 3.5/5, read this as a series of essays and enjoy the witty, sometimes absurd musing of an working mom.

First book of the year! I mostly listened to the audiobook while I was running errands and doing chores and what not. Didn't read too much of the physical book. It was a lot shorter than I expected.

It was a funny and goofy book. Not something I could really relate to, but I still liked listening to Mann as she told the stories. I laughed out loud a few times.

Mood reading for the night.

A sometimes comical look at raising your kids in #thesuburbs, this wasn‘t quite what I expected. Not quite as funny as expected either. However, there were definitely some good laughs.

Book 59/90 2/10/19

This book wasn't quite what I expected it would be based on the description but I still enjoyed it for the most part. It's hard to believe some of the ridiculous moms and other people she encounters!

I loved this! I thought only my husband was that big brothers with our bank accounts! Lol!

This book was just what I needed. Silly, a little snarky, Mom humor. Most of it wasn‘t laugh out loud funny, and I doubt many of the stories are true, but it was a fun read nonetheless

This is me!

A quick, funny, enjoyable read. Similar to Jenny Lawson, but not as good. 4 ⭐️‘s.

It has been a really long week. For a variety of nasty reasons. I haven‘t even had much time for Litsy . Sometimes a library hold comes at just the right time.

There's no option on Litsy to review the kindle single volumes of this series, but this review is just for volume 1. This was suggested to me by Amazon after finishing Furiously Happy, and it was only $0.99 so I figured what the heck? It took me about 15-20 minutes to read and was actually pretty funny. I'll definitely be checking out more of the series! 4⭐️

Because nothing says love like a good 🥊

Admittedly, I felt a need for physical violence when “The Hubs” questioned his neighbor spending $13k for his dog‘s surgery instead of putting him down. Also, I could punch the author for using the nickname “The Hubs” ad nauseum.

Happy Valentines 😂

Yes - it's been that kind of a day. When you end up covering your work desk with masking tape to avoid ruining yet another shirt or pair of leggings, you know you are winning at life. At least now that I'm home I can enjoy a few laughs and think about throat punching. 👊💥🤕

So funny! I laughed out loud over and over!

On a scale of cat, my week has been a very unpleasant mix between 2, 3 and 8. I'm so grateful to finally be curled up on the couch with one of the pups, reading a good book, and the flickering glow of candles all around me. #scaleofcat #tgif #hyggelife #somanycandles 🕯🔥🕯

And just when I swore I was going to start my book buying ban...for real this time...I saw that this is a book that exists. #buyallthebooks #throatpunchesforeveryone!

Got these at a used book sale today! Going to the bag sale Saturday 😍

Let's begin. Shall We?

Sometimes you just need a funny book #sorbet #BeenReadingHeavyStuff

Meh. ? Just another random selection for my 2016 A-Z Book Title Challenge (letter "P"). There were a few chuckles but it didn't really wow me. I also wasn't a fan of the narrator.

We always choose one funny book for book club during the year. This year, it was this one. I'm not a mom so I didn't relate to much of the humor. I almost bailed after the first couple of chapters but gave it a second chance and made it through. We did have a nice book club lunch today, though!

This was a light-hearted audiobook listen. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. There are some pretty funny parts, but not quite enough of them.

Today's #labsoundtrack as I scramble to get all my lab work done before I'm out all day tomorrow for traveling and testifying in another case. I figured it was fitting for a Monday.

Moderately funny. Fast read.

A funny collection of essays that are more relatable to moms (some dads). Some were laugh out loud funny, others not so much. I think I have a much longer list of people that I want to throat punch. To each his/her own.

😂😂😂😂😂🙌🙌🙌

Frozen pop and a book while the kids nap. I should start making alcoholic pops for just this occasion. 🍾🍭🍧😏👍

I love her reaction because that's something I would do/say. I talk like a pirate too. ☠🗡

Loved this book! I'm not a mom, but her wit and sarcasm about her experiences as a mom were hilarious! I could barely put this book down and didn't want it to end. Fortunately she has written several others so I can keep reading her works. Perfect.

Hilarious if you have kids.we have all been there and wanted to say what Jen Mann days! I want her as my friend! Super quick read.

This was a silly gift. Do I bother reading it? Would love input!

Think I'm going to dig this #audiostyle

Funny and so relatable for me. I can get behind Jenn's "fuck that shit" attitude since I share it on so many things. This did sort of make me never want to have kids because it sounds exhausting. Good book for helping me get out of my reading funk.

Just started this to try and get out of my slump. I think the combination of funny stories and relating to how stupid people can be will be perfect.
