Why am I passionate about this?
I love to laugh. Quite often itâs at inappropriate times or at someone elseâs expense, but either way, itâs a huge part of who I am. Second only to prayer, I find laughter to be the best remedy for a difficult situation. Itâs hard to be sad when youâre laughing, and as a writer who puts characters into very challenging positions, thatâs always at the forefront of my mind. While readers may not always relate to the exact circumstance my characters are in, they may very well find common ground in the levity they seek when trying to survive it.
Bethany's book list on for a hearty laugh
Why did Bethany love this book?
I was (thankfully) long past the âputting kids to bedâ stage of life when I first read this book, but you donât have to be in the depths of sleep-deprived hell to enjoy it! This book is 100% irreverent which makes it 100% perfect! It will provide just the right amount of levity to any frustrated parent/sitter who canât understand why that beautiful, crying child in front of them wonât go to sleep already! Disclaimer: If you donât appreciate a good F-bomb, donât read this book. The title says it all.
2 authors picked Go the F*ck to Sleep as one of their favorite books, and they share why you should read it.
