“I liked Funny in Farsi better but the last chapter of this book sums it all up perfectly!”

“I'm so glad that I was able to read Dumas' second memoir immediately following her first, as it really was as if she simply took a break from her storytelling when I closed one cover, but resumed her effort as soon as I opened the next. Here, she continues to appeal to both my heart and my funny bone. Her family simply delights me, so full of positive energy and an abundant supply of love. Dumas walks that fine line of poking fun at the antics of her family members while never stepping over the line of disrespect. As she described her first year of motherhood, the authenticity of her experiences rang true to me, most definitely. Another amusing and endearing memoir that made me wish again that I could share a cup of tea with the author and simply chat... without ice, of course!”

“It was all right. I found some of the stories dull while I found others very engaging. I almost felt as if I should have had some sort of inside knowledge. Perhaps I should have read her other book first.”
