I am a working mother of two whose passion (besides my family) is books. I am an avid reader who enjoys all types of books, although I mainly read fiction. In addition to reading, I also love crocheting, knitting, cooking, running, and watching Penn State sports. Contact me: bookingmama@gmail.com

Summary: Delightfully smart and heartbreakingly poignant, Allison Pearson’s smash debut novel has exploded onto bestseller lists as “The national anthem for working mothers.” Hedge-fund manager, wife, and mother of two, Kate Reddy manages to juggle nine currencies in five time zones and keep in step with the Teletubbies. But when she finds herself awake at 1:37 a.m. in a panic over the need to produce a homemade pie for her daughter’s school, she has to admit her life has become unrecognizable. With panache, wisdom, and uproarious wit,I Don’t Know How She Does It brilliantly dramatizes the dilemma of every working mom. -- Anchor
It's been quite a few years since I've read I DON'T KNOW HOW SHE DOES IT by Allison Pearson for my book club, but I do remember thinking it would make a fantastic movie. Well, guess what? The movie version of I DON'T KNOW HOW SHE DOES IT will be in theaters on September 16th. It looks great and talk about an amazing all-star cast! I DON'T KNOW HOW SHE DOES IT stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Pierce Brosnan, Greg Kinnear, Christina Hendricks, Kelsey Grammer, Seth Meyers, and Olivia Munn.
I wanted to share the movie trailer with you just to give you an idea of how terrific it looks:

Thanks for the giveaway. My daughter and I saw the preview for this in the theater when we went to see The Help. We both looked at each other and said, "we have to see that!"
I'm listening to this audiobook right now, and there are so many things that I want to write down and go back and "re-read" but can't necessarily because I'm using audiobook instead of an actual book. I love this book and feel very much like Kate at times, but I also think she is a bit despicable and really want to read this again (in printed book form) right away to feel like I have given her a fair chance. Thanks for the giveaway. I haven't seen the trailer for the movie, and at this point in the book, I'm not sure if I want to see it, but that's why I want to read it again pretty soon. I really want Kate to redeem herself to me because I really want to end up liking her character as much as I like the book.
