Publisher Description:

Join bestselling romantic comedy author, Whitney Dineen, as she discovers the three Es of parenting:
- Exhilarating--when you first discover you're pregnant.
- Exhausting--when you realize you'll most likely never sleep again--like EVER.
- Explosive--OMG these kids spew from both ends
And that's just the beginning. Whitney shares the ridiculous highs and excruciating lows of her catapult into motherhood. Enjoy the ride as this new mom vows to give up profanity while falling in love with... you guessed it, Costco. Be careful, because if you're anything like Whitney, you may just pee a little.
Motherhood Martyrdom & Costco Runs takes the reader on a roller coaster of emotions as Whitney plummets into postpartum depression, desperately tries to get her kids to stop yodeling in public restrooms, and comes to terms with the fact she'll never quite be queen of her own kingdom. Get ready to laugh, cry, cheer, and pat yourself on the back for the sake of mommies everywhere. And while you're at it, stop by Costco for a case of toilet paper and a very berry sundae. You won't regret it


Contributor Bio(s): Dineen, Whitney: - While attending the University of Illinois in Chicago, Whitney Dineen was discovered by a local modeling agent and began an unexpected career as a plus-size Ford model. She modeled in New York City before moving to Los Angeles with her husband. During "The Hollywood Years," Whitney was bitten by the writing bug and started creating characters that are inspired by strong women with a great sense of humor. Whitney's first romantic comedy, She Sins at Midnight, won a silver medal in the 2015 Reader's Favorite Awards. Her second, The Reinvention of Mimi Finnegan, won a silver medal at the 2016 Reader's Favorite Awards, Honorable Mention at the London Book Festival and is also a finalist in the 2016 RONE Awards. Her third rom com, Mimi Pus Two, was a finalist in the 2016 Readers' Favorite Awards. In addition to her love of romantic comedies, Whitney has also written a series of adventure books for middle readers. The first two books in The Wilhelmina Adventures are, Wilhelmina and the Willamette Wig Factory (Finalist in the 2016 Reader's Favorite Awards in 4th-6th Grade Fiction) and Who the Heck is Harvey Stingle? The third adventure, Beware of the Basement, will be out in the autumn of 2017. Motherhood Martyrdom & Costco Runs is the true story of her somewhat inellegant introduction to motherhood. Whitney and her husband, Jimmy, have relocated to the beautiful Pacific Northwest to raise their children, chickens and organic vegetables.
