Product Details

Web ID: 16835838

A funny, sexy, and ultimately poignant memoir about mastering the art of the vacationship, the inspiration for the upcoming Freeform series While You Were BreedingKristin Newman spent much of her twenties and thirties buying dresses to wear to her friend's weddings and baby showers. Not ready to settle down and in need of an escape from her fast-paced job as a sitcom writer, Kristin instead traveled the world, often alone, for several weeks each year. In addition to falling madly in love with the planet, Kristin fell for many attractive locals, men who could provide the emotional connection she wanted without costing her the freedom she desperately needed. Kristin introduces readers to the Israeli bartenders, Finnish poker players, sexy Bedouins, and Argentinean priests who helped her transform into "Kristin-Adjacent" on the road, a slower, softer, and, yes, sluttier version of herself at home. Equal parts laugh-out-loud storytelling, candid reflection, and wanderlust-inspiring travel tales, What I Was Doing While You Were Breeding is a compelling debut that will have readers rushing to renew their passports.

Entertaining, quick read!

Not sure how anyone could rate this below 4-stars, it's a 5 in my book. It's hilarious and raw. A great read for women in their 20s/30s that think settling down too early is one of the scariest thoughts in the world. Not sure if the societal pressures put on us to find a partner, buy a house, and have kids in your 20s is your idea of a good life? It's okay to put that on pause for a decade or two until you're ready.
