Praise for Ayelet's Bad Mother:

"Most of the mothers I know will see themselves reflected in these wise pages, and will find long-overdue comfort here."
—Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love

"Bad Mother is blunt, wry, prescriptive and pleasurable."
—Meg Wolitzer, author of The Ten-Year Nap

"I relished her graceful language, self-mocking humor, her clear, if sometimes painful, insight. And I admire her—deeply—for the bracing honesty that redeems it all."
—Peggy Orenstein, author of Waiting for Daisy

Reviews & Praise "Ayelet Waldman has given birth to a fresh new franchise with her Mommy-Track Mysteries. Juliet Applebaum is smart, fearless, and completely candid about life as a full-time mom with a penchant for part-time detective work. Kinsey Millhone would approve." —Sue Grafton   "Drawing sharp contrasts between the world of conservative Judaism and Juliet's more liberal Hollywood life, Waldman has given her heroine a compelling story befitting her intelligent, witty voice." —Publisher's Weekly
