Reviews

"More fun at a baby shower than a Diaper Genie." --Tampa Bay Times "It's not easy to riff off childhood favorites with such a clean balance of wit and punch, but Federle nails it." --Food Network Dish "The exhaustion and the joy of parenthood are palatable. That is what makes this book exceptional. It perfectly captures both ends of the parenting spectrum." --BookTrib "Hickory joins a line of recent publications like the viral smash Go the F**k to Sleep and the follow-up You Have to F**king Eat that add an irreverent twist to parenting." --Atlantic Magazine "[E]ssential cocktail book to add to your collection." --L.A. Times Daily Dish Praise for Tim Federle's Tequila Mockingbird "It's a little-known fact that the information in here will make anyone look and sound better than they actually do" --David Baldacci "...this is a wonderfully entertaining read, slight enough to be digested in one sitting, clever enough to be entertaining even if you never make a single one of the cocktails." --World of Beer blog
