Hello, My Name Is Mommy: The Dysfunctional Girl's Guide to Having, Loving (and Hopefully Not Screwing Up) a Baby Review

I used to be a listener of Bob and Sheri when I lived in South Carolina. In 2001, I moved to Rhode Island and it was bye-bye Bob and Sheri. Oh how I miss listening to them in the mornings. I was so excited to learn that Sheri wrote a book. It lived up to every expectation. I just got it in the mail yesterday and I can't put it down. It is blunt, humorous and gives practical advice. A must have book for couples who want to have kids. Thank you Sheri, and what can I do to get a RI station to play your show in the morning??????????

Hello, My Name Is Mommy: The Dysfunctional Girl's Guide to Having, Loving (and Hopefully Not Screwing Up) a Baby Overview

Hilarious and true and inspirational, Hello, My Name is Mommy is for every pregnant woman and new mother who ever felt helpless and out of control instead of confident and aglow.Sure, women know pregnancy is no bed of roses, but Lynch taps into her own dysfunctional childhood and fears about becoming a mom to label a much profounder worry many moms-to-be have: that their own pasts were so screwed up that they're doomed to repeat the cycle.Dr. Spock may tell moms to trust their instincts, but Lynch's Misfit Mommies want to do every last thing but that. They feel like frauds and imposters, and Lynch's real-girl's voice will be instantly recognizable to them.Lynch will walk and talk new moms through it all: from lamenting the hot dogs and second-hand smoke they were raised on (and, of course, "you turned out just fine") to the realization that kids are kind of germy and gross (but feeling that way doesn't make one a bad mother) to keeping it together at work with Cheerios in the old nursing bra.

Devil's Embrace (Devil's Duology) Review

I am aware that Coulter pushes the envelope sometimes, but this book is just inexcusible. I can't decide if I find I'm more amazed that it was published in the first place or that Coulter appears to be proud of this monstrosity. But I'm getting ahead of myself.
Cassie.. I have nothing against the poor girl. In fact, I liked her quite a bit. She deserved none of the terrible things that happened to her. Apparently, Coulter hates her. It is the only way to explain the sadistic way she treated.
Cassie, seventeen and in love a soldier named Edward, forgoes her season in London to marry her sweetheart post haste. The day before her wedding, she sailing when Anthony Welles's, Earl of Clare, yacht over takes her small craft. He forces her onboard, wrecks her boat against the rocks so everyone will think she's dead, then cheerfully announces his intentions of taking her to Italy to marry, whether she wants to or not.
I hate Anthony. He should be castrated. I think he just be the most vile 'hero' to ever make his way into the genre. Anthony is twice her age and he loved her intitally because she looks like her dead mother who he was also in love with. He claims he loves her for herself after watching her blossom over the years. Cassie tries using logic to persuade him to take her back, but..oh, this jerk has an answer for everything. His smugness when he explains his skewed version of reality to Cassie as if she were a stupid child is what I hate most about him. Yes, and he does talk to her as if she were a child. Daddy knows best I guess. (Yuck!)In his twisted mind, the way to get her fall in love with him is to degrade her. Of course, he rationalizes it in his own speacial way to make it seem like she is acting like a hysterical ninny. When he first rapes her, it's taking her virginity to ensure she can't go back to Edward. When he whips her, it's light discipline. When he forces her to sleep naked with him, it's getting her used to him.
If there's anything to recommend about this book its the prose. They are very well written. Suprisingly, the dialogue runs smoothly. Absent is Colter's annoying 'sex dialogue' where the hero discusses the heroine's 'soft white belly' etc. Anthony has a few of those lines but they sound more clinical than stupid.
There is nothing in the least romantic about this book. I could finish it, but from other reviews I've learned many other tradegies befall poor Cassie. This book is just evil. Cassie and Anthony's relationship kept making me think of stepfather who rape their stepdaughters. When Cassie starts to feel desire for him, I can only shake my head and sigh. Obvisiously, he's repeated "You will come to love me" so many times she's become brainwashed. This is a stomach-churner and I can't concieve of why it was reissued. I thought the whole rape/captive stories had been dead and buried but I was wrong. It's novels like this that give the genre its bad name.
In short, 17-year old heroine + smug rapist hero= vomit inducer.
This is the story of the degradation and abuse of a young girl disguised as a romance.
