Idiots

Marriage, Motherhood, Milk & Mistakes

By: Laura Clery

Narrated by: Laura Clery

A fresh, hilarious, and relatable collection of essays about everything from motherhood and marriage to sobriety and work-life balance (or imbalance) from the nationally bestselling author of the “honest, complicated” (SheKnows) Idiot.

TRIGGER WARNING: TORN EVERYTHING!

In her first book, Idiot, bestselling author Laura Clery gave us mind-blowingly personal life stories about addiction, toxic relationships, and recovery—establishing herself as the preeminent voice of infinite conviction meets zero impulse control. Here she is two kids later asking, “How did we get here?” Sex. Sex is how we got here.

Laura’s life has changed a great deal since she wrote Idiot, but her hilarious candor has only increased with motherhood—plus she tells some of the stories she was too scared to tell in her first book (which is really saying something). “Full of wit” (Publishers Weekly) and charm, Laura shares more than anyone wanted about:

-Placenta pills, mom brain, and vibrator manifestation
-Nipple-twisting orgies and flinging a butt burrito in your doctor’s face
-ADHD, autism, postpartum depression, and the wisdom of a ninety-eight-year-old sage named Anne
-Unsolicited dick, sexual assault, and sister-drugging
-Cheating, fights, and forgiveness
-Choosing love over fear and healing the world

Laura does not hold back when it comes to sharing stories of screw-ups, triumphs, and learning from her mistakes. Whether she’s crying into a diaper in a Whole Foods parking lot or desperately soliciting advice from a random elderly stranger (who has most certainly considered a restraining order), Laura is able to laugh at herself even during her worst moments—more importantly, she makes us laugh, cry, and feel less alone in the world.

Fantastic and SO.DANG.RELATABLE

I want more from LC and Family!
I adore them and how, like Laura said, honest she is and how understanding Stephen is. The book had me at tears, both happy and sad. but also laughing and enticed by what she was saying.
Read read read!!!!!

The performance and stories

I love how honest, open, and funny Laura is in this book. I am expecting with my first child and it was so relatable to moms especially if your expecting. I am in between the idea of using a midwife or hospital birth and listening made me evaluate my birth plan and my thoughts about using a midwife or hospital, epidural or no epidural for my first born child. My favorite part was that this is the only book that ever had me bust out laughing. The performance and voices are great. Some parts I had my fiance listen as well and he also laughed and thought Laura was funny and relatable. I definitely recommend this book/audible. Thanks for sharing your stories Laura.

AHHHHHMAZING!

I need every book that I listen to in this app to be narrated by Laura. She is brilliant. This book is brilliant. EVERYTHING IS BRILLIANT....oh and BALLSACKS! 🤣 IYKYK

I am so glad I got the audible version! This is the best reading that I have ever heard of any book, insanely interesting story, I wish it never ended!

Brilliant! Inspiring! Real and raunchy in the best way!

Effin Amazing! I laughed so hard that I may or may not have peed on myself a few times! Kitty whiskers and ass burritos had me snorting with laughter!

This is one of the most raw and down to earth books I have read in my life! Thank you for sharing and thank you for narrating about ball sacks in your own voice…. No one else could have done that justice
