“This book made me feel whole again.”
—Julie, http://www.stepchicks.ning
“Wednesday Martin, I salute you. If you are a stepmother, the husband or partner of a stepmother, or a stepchild, or you simply want to understand more about stepfamilies, read this book. I cannot recommend it enough. And if you are a stepmother, lock your significant other in a room and do not let him out until he has read it cover to cover and then again backwards.”
—Confessions of a wicked stepmother, http://wickedsteppiesconfessions.blogspot.com/2009/08/wednesday-martin-i-salute-you.html
“Absolutely fantastic—will touch a nerve with every single stepmom out there. A wonderful, intelligent, insightful book that will help stepmothers breathe a sigh of relief that they have been heard…As a therapist who works with stepfamilies, and an educator of therapists, I highly recommend this book to all as a very valuable resource.”
—Five-Star Review, Susan Davis Swanson, Director, The Stepfamily Center, Beverly Hills, CA
“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
“Nothing short of amazing... Stepmonster is truly unique because it explores stepparenting from the stepmother’s perspective and offers solid research, facts, and data. I’m sure I won’t be the first or the last to say Thank You for writing this book.”
—Five-Star Review, Brenda Ockun, President and Publisher, http://www.stepmommag.com
