Labor Day: True Birth Stories by Today's Best Women Writers by
5.0
Oh, a book written exactly for me? Well, I cannot resist but to give you 5 stars then, book.
Fans of birth stories will obviously gobble this up. Even more so if you are a fan of literary memoir. More than one contributor seems to have named a child after Willa Cather, if that gives you a sense of what kind of moms and stories we are dealing with here.

I have officially listened to this book on audio during all three of my pregnancies. And I was sad it was over every time. It is, apparently, my preferred method of ingesting birth stories as I prepare for my own.
