"Witty, biting essays laced with a surprising warmth, from Jen Mann, the writer behind the popular blog 'People I Want to Punch in the Throat.' Jen Mann doesn’t have a filter, which sometimes gets her in trouble with her neighbors, her fellow PTA moms, and that one woman who tried to sell her sex toys at a home shopping party. Mann brings her sharp wit to bear on suburban life, marriage, and motherhood in collection of essays. From the politics of joining a play group, to the thrill of mothers’ night out at the gun range, to the rewards of your most meaningful relationship (the one you have with your cleaning lady), nothing is sacred or off-limits. So the next time you find yourself wearing fuzzy bunny pajamas in the school carpool line or accidentally stuck at a co-worker's swingers party, just think, What would Jen Mann do? In 2012 Jen Mann self-published a debut collection of essays, Spending the Holidays with People I Want to Punch in the Throat. She lives in the suburbs of Kansas"--Provided by publisher.

American wit and humor.
