“TMI Mom: Oversharing My Life”: A Book for Moms of This Generation

Filed Under: Sponsored Posts, Writing/Blogging Tagged With: , , , ,

Oversharing and sometimes saying more then I probably should.  I do this all the time.  Hell, I blog daily and am considered by most in my family, my husband included, to say more than I should by telling too much information here, as well as in general. I can tell you how many times, Kevin has said to me, “Can you just get to the point?” or even, “Who are you talking to now?” I have also heard, “Can you ever just be quiet?” The answer quite simply is a resounding “No!”

So when I was asked by Heather Davis, if I would be interested in reading/reviewing her new book “TMI Mom: Oversharing My Life”, I knew I just had to. Seriously the title alone spoke to me and my oversharing tendencies like you wouldn’t believe. I was also quite honored to be considered for this wonderful opportunity to get to read it even before published and get to share about it here with all my readers.

TMI Mom--Oversharing My Life

TMI Mom–Oversharing My Life

See, I read Heather Davis’s Minivan Momma blog daily and one of the things I do love about her is how open and down to earth she is.  She just tells it like it is on her space.  We share a common bond on this concept and became fast friends in the blogging world, because of it.  And then I actually got the pleasure to start to read her book and let me tell you, if I loved her and her blog before I absolutely adore her now and her book is truly a godsend for mothers of our generation all over.

See nothing in her life is off limits in her latest book.  From her courtship and marriage with “The Dad” (her husband Brian), motherhood (being the mother of Daughter 1 and Daughter 2), exercise (her loathing of it–a girl after my own heart), her body (a very hilarious straightforward tale of getting fitted for a new bra), her hair (graying early, just like I did and could have so written this passage myself) and her general view of life.  All of these tales are told and not only with complete honestly, but with such humor you just can’t help but laugh and root for her, as well.


I don’t want to give too much away or spoil the fun for you, but let me tell you, Heather just has a way of making the reader not only laugh out loud, but also make you feel like you know her personally as a friend, all while commiserating and even sharing in her exploits.

Quite honestly, I think you will not only enjoy reading her book, but not want to put it down. And when you do finish it, you will want to read it over and over again, because it is just too good and you will not want it be over. Believe me I have been there and have now been re-reading it, because it truly is that enjoyable!!

So, Happy Reading and Oversharing!!

    Janine, this looks like my kind of book and I would love to read! Thanks for doing this giveaway!

  4. Cyndi says

    How fun and how awesome, Janine! I'm glad you got a chance to read this. Wonderful stuff and this book sounds great! It's fun being an "advanced reader" as we used to say when I worked at a bookstore. 😀

  5. Blond Duck says

    It sounds like a great book! It's really interesting how we went from not talking about parenting/ marriage struggles to over sharing as a generational difference!

  6. Janine Huldie says

    I loved being an advanced reader and truly forced me to read. I love to read, but I know I complain often I don't seem to have enough time, but it gave me the perfect excuse to find time (if that makes sense!). Thanks as always Cyndi!! 🙂

  9. Jessica Smock says

    I'm excited to read it too! It is so interesting the sorts of cultural shifts that we have made in less than a generation. I find myself changing about this with each month!

    • Janine Huldie says

      So true Jessica and kind of happy we have, because I truly do feel like getting to share (or overshare) helps me greatly. Hey it is less money then therapy!! 🙂 But seriously, if you entered, I wish you good luck!!

    There's nothing wrong with telling too much…that's what makes it funnier and for a better read…at least for me.

  20. Ruchira says

    The review looks appealing, Janine. I am happy that you could read it and give us a hint;)

    Voted for ya!

  21. Melanie Chisnall says

    LOL, I can see why you'd like this book, because that is so you. But that's why we love you, and why people read your blog. Because you also just tell it like it is and are down to earth. Sounds like a lovely book, I wouldn't mind reading it, great review! 🙂

  23. Susannah says

    Wow, what an interesting book. I don't have kids yet, but I've definitely thought about how much I will be willing to share about them on my blog when they do come around.

    • Janine Huldie says

      I know Susannah and I had to make that decision too and to be honest, I want them to be able to read and learn about themselves at this age. So, most of my sharing of them is to have some documentation as they do get older 🙂
