A rally cry for working mothers everywhere that demolishes the "distracted, emotional, weak" stereotype and definitively shows that these professionals are more focused, decisive, and stronger than any other force. There is copious academic research showing the benefits of working mothers on families and the benefits to companies who give women longer and more flexible parental leave. There are even findings that demonstrate women with multiple children actually perform better at work than those with none or one.

Liked - worth reading to get perspective on global working women’s issues
Revisado: 01-17-19
I am not a mom - but much of the book has a heavy lens, tho Lacy is explicit about saying all women should have choice (as much as men) in all dimensions of their lives.
The personal story with Uber was a bit lengthy - but overall appreciate to 2 parts of the book (her personal encounters and feelings with being successful and being a mom) > and what other situations are for women (mothers or not) in other parts like Iceland and China.
Pretty quick read and I love the voice reading.
Impactful enough to share with 2 guy friends for insight into a women’s working world.

Mindy Kaling has lived many lives: the obedient child of immigrant professionals, a timid chubster afraid of her own bike, a Ben Affleck–impersonating Off-Broadway performer and playwright, and, finally, a comedy writer and actress prone to starting fights with her friends and coworkers with the sentence “Can I just say one last thing about this, and then I swear I’ll shut up about it?”

Worth the price and if you've been curious

Glad I read it, but wasn't expecting it to be so surface.
Liked hearing about Mindy's past and thoughts about key points in her life. You can tell she wrote the book for herself (which can be a good thing!).
So, if you have been wondering, read it. Then go out and listen to Amy Poehler's book.
