Bomb Shelter: Love, Time, and Other Explosives

"Bomb Shelter is a memoir of a mother’s experience after finding her son unconscious on the bathroom floor in the middle of the night. It’s a book that tugs at your heartstrings in all the right ways. In a series of essays, Mary Laura Philpott expertly weaves together comical stories about parenthood with ones about heavier themes: life, death and what we can and can’t do to protect the ones we love. I enjoyed this as an audiobook while on walks with my dog – often laughing out loud one minute and tearing up the next."
