From Mary Catherine Starr, the artist behind the @momlife_comics Instagram account celebrated by moms all over the world, this deeply funny illustrated memoir captures the chaos, joy, exhaustion, guilt, well-intentioned-but-clueless partners, and infinite loads of laundry that come with being a mom.
 

Packed with humor, warmth, and all-too-relatable anecdotes, this comic memoir explores the (often invisible) labor of modern motherhood that leaves so many moms feeling like they are losing themselves—and their minds! Whether you’re navigating a hellish sleep regression, wiping sweet potato off the walls, seething with spousal resentment (deserved and undeserved), or simply hoping to pee without a toddler watching, this candid and irreverent account perfectly captures what every mom knows in her heart to be true: motherhood is @#$% hard (and also really amazing)!

Filled with Starr’s signature wit, warmth, and observational humor, Mama Needs a Minute! tackles all the absurdities of mom life and will make you laugh, cry, and feel seen in a way only a true mom-friend can offer.

Perfect for:

  • Mothers of young children
  • Fans of @momlife_comics on Instagram
  • Mother's Day and new mom gift shoppers
  • Fans of humorous takes on parenting, including Momma Cusses, Horizontal Parenting, Welcome to the ClubGo the F*** to Sleep, and There Are Moms Way Worse Than You
  • Readers of Eve Rodsky’s Fair Play and Jessi Klein’s I’ll Show Myself Out
Mary Catherine Starr is an artist and graphic designer. Her popular Instagram account @momlife_comics explores motherhood, marriage, and the double standards of parenting through hilarious and relatable comics. She lives on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, with her husband and their two children.
