i reach my mid-twenties and suddenly i'm interested in books about being a mom...biology is a hell of a drug. this was a very, very honest book, but not a very reflective one. i didn't know going into this that it's by the sarah hoover who is married to tom sachs, whose ill-advised job posting for an "executive assistant" involved 24/7 nannying and pooper-scoopering and so on led to his being exposed as a pretty sh*t boss among other things. i just thought it was by a sarah hoover, a pretty common name, exploring the realities of post-partum depression and pregnancy and childbirth and mothering in a misogynistic society. i had no awareness that her version of all of the above was that of the 1%, and that there were only about 3 days between nannies when that process didn't involve constant, live-in help. post-partum depression (and all of the other issues mentioned above) are under-discussed and critical, but there was just no self awareness here. every time i would begin to root for sarah, she'd include another crazy moment of unrecognized privilege: crying over how much she hates the 15 minutes a day she makes herself spend in her baby's company, refusing to go into one of the world's best hospitals where her husband is paying the cost of a fancy hotel for her private room, writing at length about how her sister's horrifically traumatic stillbirth affected her. this isn't to say that wealth can buy your way out of subjugation or trauma or mental illness, but that an acknowledgment (or god forbid, a single grain of salt) would be nice. i'm complaining a lot, but i didn't hate reading this book. it just left a bad taste in my mouth. and i thought all of that before i learned that she repeatedly lied and used her sister's trauma without permission. bottom line: this is a necessary book. it's just that it shouldn't have been sarah hoover writing it. (thanks to the publisher for the arc)
