Favorite quote:

"I don't know what's more exhausting about parenting: the getting up early, or acting like you know what you're doing.”


What did you find intriguing about this book?

Jim Gaffigan is a comedian who shares his humorous view of his life after he met his wife and work partner, Jeanne. Both live in a tiny New York City apartment with their 5 children, and you can imagine how he would have unlimited comedic material for his stand-up. Even if you are not a parent, you can relate to his parental horror stories that are delivered in his characteristic brand of humor. The book is an fun read, but the audiobook allows you to hear Gaffigan’s delivery.
