With a slew of momoirs hitting the book shelves (YAY!), it can be hard to navigate through which one would be of great interest to you. Most of us have little time, if any, to enjoy a good read, and so any recommendations that can be passed on from mom to mom, or parent to parent are most appreciated.

Well, if you happen to pass by Rebecca Woolf’s new memoir Rockabye: From Wild to Child, I strongly encourage you to pick it up. Having finished it on one plane ride to New York City a few weeks ago, I can honestly say it’s a definite must-read. Of course, you’ll read the rest of my review as part of our Parent Bloggers Network book tour, but suffice it to say that Rebecca’s writing, made popular on her blog Girls Gone Child, is beautifully uncomplicated — no running to the dictionary to look up words or no brain twists to try to figure out what she’s saying. Her story of surprise pregnancy in her early twenties, becoming a mother, and her struggles with the transition are something that all moms, regardless of how “wild” your past was, can relate to.

Check out the reviews of Rockabye, and catch Rebecca on the Motherhood Uncensored Podcast on 5/14 from 9-9:30pm EST. And if you’re lucky enough to live on the West Coast, please stop by and support Rebecca at one of her many live and in person book tour stops!
