Mommies Who Drink's Blurbs |
About me:
“Brett’s book, Mommies Who Drink, is funny and silly and true. I mean, I’m not a mother, and to be honest I don’t drink (it gives me a stomachache,) but I can tell you that this book is better than a giant bong hit. And I’m not even high right now. (But she is.)” —SARAH SILVERMAN, comedian
“Mommies Who Drink by Brett Paesel made me laugh so hard I nearly wet my pants. Why oh why was she not in my mommies group?” —AYELET WALDMAN, author of Love and Other Impossible Pursuits
“Brett Paesel is an amazing writer who has given us a true gift in Mommies Who Drink. I laughed at her, I laughed with her and I laughed at myself. I didn’t want the book to end—it’s that good.” —CHERYL HINES, actor
“Chick Lit is all grown up with a kid on her hip and a three-olive martini in her hand. Brett’s deeply touching, deeply hilarious autobiographical novel Mommies Who Drink will leave readers stumbling in the streets doubled over with laughter. If Rebecca Wells and Bukowski had a baby and left her on Fran Leibowitz’s doorstep she might grow up to be Brett Paesel. This original, unfaltering new writer will surely find a well deserved booth in the back of the pantheon of contemporary literature. Cheers!” —MOON ZAPPA, author of America The Beautiful
“Just when you worry there are no taboos left to explode, Brett Paesel redefines new motherhood with a book so painfully honest and funny, there should be a two-drink minimum. Mommies Who Drink is an R-rated book for women reluctant to enter a G-rated world. The author clearly understands every new mother’s need to be validated, liberated and occasionally inebriated.” —CINDY CHUPACK, author of The Between Boyfriends Book and a Writer/Executive Producer of HBO’s Sex and the City
“It’s not Mommy Lit, nor your standard-shelf “This is my Sex Life” memoir. It’s Brett Paesel—a poet, a spy, an artist, a comedienne—who happens to be a mommy with a sex life. I love Brett’s laugh-out-loud writing and skewed perspective that always resonates with deep, complex, hilarious truth. She thinks like no other, and writes like someone we’ve all been waiting for.” —JILL SOLOWAY, writer and co-executive producer, Six Feet Under and author of Tiny Ladies in Shiny Pants
“There is nothing ordinary about Brett Paesel--she is a mommy who cries, who laughs, who drinks, but most importantly, who writes from the heart and shares her ups and downs with great mirth and strength. Mommies Who Drink is a winning debut.”
- AMY SCHEIBE, author of What Do You Do All Day?
“Brett Paesel exposes the secrets of modern motherhood with wit, candor, and plenty of love. A lively and entertaining read.” -ARIEL GORE, founding editor of Hip Mama and author of The Traveling Death and Resurrection Show
