"From Beer to Maternity" - A Review



I am having the best time reading "From Beer to Maternity" by Maggie Lamond Simone.

For those moments when the kids are doing their best to bring on the Mommy Death Stare I grab my copy of "From Beer to Maternity" and fade into a world that makes me laugh out loud. I don't do that often while reading. Watching sit-coms, seeing someone trip ( I know, I'm horrible) then I laugh out loud, but not normally when reading. Maggie Lamond Simone has the words, the timing and the energy to send me into hysterics. (The good hysterics, not the crazy kind my children would like me to have.)

"From Beer to Maternity" reads like a collection of journal entries. The beginning of the book doesn't have the intention of taking you to an end result. You are reading a journey of a life, thoughts and observations that will make you laugh and some that will make you quite teary.

I am thrilled I have had the opportunity to review “From Beer to Maternity” by Maggie Lamond Simone. If you need a mood elevator do yourself a favor and check out this book, you won’t be sorry.
