Books by AK Turner
This Little Piggy Went to the Liquor Store chronicles what happens when a little girl who scorns the idea of marriage and children (in favor of becoming a stiletto-wearing, attache-carrying Secret Agent), majors in Russian, minors in Vodka, and then one day finds herself with child… and in-laws.
In this hilarious start to her Tales of Imperfection series, Amanda Turner reveals the thoughts and feelings every mother has thought at some point - specifically, "I need a drink." She revels in her imperfect approach to motherhood while sharing raucous accounts of her misadventures in parenting, and is unafraid when it comes to discussing the mistakes new mothers can make while trying to raise their kids to not be serial killers. The infused second edition of this "momoir," This Little Piggy Went to the Liquor Store, will keep you laughing as you pour yourself another cocktail.
