“Her insights and advice are more clear and articulate than those offered in any other book currently available.”
—LA Examiner
“Eye-opening, well-researched…[Martin] examines from every angle the myth that a well-blended, happy stepfamily is easy to achieve.”
source: Library Journal
“There are many ‘how to’ books for stepmothers; this book offers the ‘why.’ Stepmonster combines rich social and historical research with profoundly real accounts and reflections that will resonate with stepmothers and enlighten their spouses, partners, children, and stepchildren. A very impressive work.”
—Francesca Adler-Baeder, PhD, Coordinator, National Stepfamily Resource Center
“I LOVE it. She’s writing about you, me, just about everyone of us in Stepland.”

“I swear this woman knows all of us—and has listened to every one of our stories. She is on the side of stepmothers and is very good at showing how we cope with the world we are in.”

“I don’t want to wait for the May pub. date!”

“I only wish I’d found this book 10 years ago. She hits home on SO MANY LEVELS. My recommendation is that ANY and EVERY stepmom should read this. And this should also be required when couples are going for a marriage license. ‘Does he have kids from a previous marriage? Then read the book first. Then we’ll give you a marriage license.’”
source: What real stepmothers are saying about Stepmonster from steptogether.org
“Unlike any other book about stepparenting or being a stepmother. Stepmonster really reaches to the core of the stepmother experience, [and is] the first book about stepparenting I haven’t wanted to throw out the window in frustration!”
