Reviews
- “Hurrah for stepmothers! Your moment has arrived. Stepmonster is a passionately argued, well-researched, unsentimental, whole-hearted defense of stepmothers. It’s a compelling read for anyone who has ever been been married to, or been parented by a stepmom. And for everyone else, too. You’ll argue with Wednesday Martin, you may even roll your eyes, but by the time you finish the book, you’ll have gained a first rate, truly useful understanding of stepmothers’ perspectives and feelings.”
—Janna Malamud Smith, author of A Potent Spell: Mother Love and the Power of Fear - “Her insights and advice are more clear and articulate than those offered in any other book currently available.”
—LA Examiner - “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 - “Wednesday Martin presents a refreshingly realistic—and reassuring—look at what it means to be a stepmother today. Ultimately, this book gives women in this often thankless role a reason to get over the guilt and get on with the nuts and bolts of surviving and thriving in a so-called blended family.”
—Paula Derrow, editor of Behind the Bedroom Door: Getting It, Giving It, Loving It, Missing It and articles director, Self magazine - “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!”
