My book is more like The Onion but for suburban parents. If you liked the book Go The Fuck To Sleep, you may well like Suburgatory.

Most of my career was spent in a newsroom (with my final 7 years at CNN with Anderson Cooper, Aaron Brown and others.) Trading that environment for a playground was quite the shock!
