Mommywood
Author: Tori Spelling
ISBN: 9781416599111
Mommywood by Tori Spelling chronicles Spelling’s life as a wife and mother in Hollywood. In addition to her son Liam, Spelling now has a daughter named Stella.
Even though Spelling is famous, she wants to be a regular suburban mom. The family moves to a nice close-knit neighborhood where Tori tried to befriend her neighbors, some welcoming, some not.
Like her last book which I reviewed yesterday, this one is just as funny. More funny, perhaps. Hilarious moments include Spelling’s son Liam preferring weekly tabloids to picture books and the “poo in the pool” incident.
Spelling also gets into some heady issues that parents face. She is heartbroken when her son Liam only wants Daddy. She deals with her dog passing away just before the birth of her daughter. She discusses her worries of her relationship with her mom and how it will affect her as a parent. She also delves into being a stepmom and the difficulties she runs into trying to find the right balance.
Again, I loved this book. I couldn’t put it down and found this one to be even funnier and more heartfelt than Spelling’s first book. Motherhood definitely suits Tori.
5/5
You know I never read any of Tori Spelling's books. It sounds interesting the dealings that a mother has to go through every day and how much of it is taken for granted by those around her.
I bet there is a lot of incite in this novel that would help people greatly even inadvertently.
Thank you for the review.
