Stepmom Book Review: The Package Deal: My (not-so) Glamorous Transition from Single Gal to Instant Mom

This summer, my reading list has been mostly filled with stepmom books:
Stepmonster
No One's the Bitch
A Career Girl's Guide to Becoming a Stepmom

All of the books have been enormously informative. Stepmonster told me me it's okay that I may not love my stepchildren as much as their mom does; No One's the Bitch reminded me that it takes two to tangle in the stepfamily shuffle; and A Career Girl's Guide helped me figure out how to gain some peace and solitude in my crazy house.

Well ladies, I'd like to introduce you to The Package Deal: My (not-so) Glamorous Transition from Single Gal to Instant Mom (if you haven't heard of it already). Written by the glamourous Izzy Rose of Stepmothersmilk.com fame, The Package Deal is the perfect antidote for your Stepmom Blues.

Izzy carries her sense of humor from her blog into her book, with special attention paid to maintaining references to her blog. If you've been a reader of Stepmothersmilk.com for a while, you'll probably remember some of the issues -- smelling like the boys, when the Tall One dates, should you invite the ex to the wedding?

All of the thorny issues she encounters she handles with typical Izzy grace and composure. You'll laugh so hard it will hurt and then you'll want to hand the book over to your loved one and have him read a passage or two just to give him the gist of how all of the Step-craziness feels sometimes.

The book, for all of its humor, also includes some touchy subjects that even hilarious Izzy reminds us aren't always for the weak of heart.

Ladies, if you haven't picked up your copy today, I highly advise reading this book this summer. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll wonder if you can become Izzy's new BFF.
