Trawling the dark recesses of the author’s sleep-deprived mind for amusing tales of woe, ‘Slow Down Bunny Season’ delivers a powerful punch of self-deprecation in sassy style. Motherhood, pulled off its pedestal, is reduced to the profoundly humiliating, and utterly rewarding, task that it is: cooking, cleaning, running errands, planning, organizing, baking, navigating the ins and outs of siblings… If a mom does it, it’s talked about here, along with the great joys of faking your way into selling mortgage insurance, and trying – and failing – to lead a Girl Scout troop. Author Rachael Carnes candidly embraces the poop-up-the-back-of-your-baby’s-neck Reality Party that is becoming and being a parent. Especially when you’re parenting a kid who goes through stints of insisting on calling you ‘Carole Mellow’… Explore the depths of exhaustion with a veteran of the Dawn Patrol. Throw out those books that shame you into thinking parenting is all about being perfect. This is where sh*t gets real.
