"[I]nsanely funny...it is entirely worth the read" —New York Observer
Based on the wildly popular Instagram account @CrazyJewishMom, Kate Siegel's essay collection about life with the woman who redefined the term "helicopter mom."

There is nothing more wonderful than a mother's love. There is also nothing more annoying. Who else can proudly insist that you're perfect while simultaneously making you question every career, fashion, and*relationship*decision you have ever made?
*
No one understands the delicate mother-daughter dynamic better than Kate Siegel-her own mother drove her so crazy that she decided to broadcast their hilarious conversations on Instagram. Soon, hundreds of thousands*of people were following their daily text exchanges, eager to see what outrageous thing Kate's mom would do next. Now, in*Mother, Can You NOT?, Kate pays tribute to the woman who invented the concept of drone parenting.*
From embarrassing moments (like crashing Kate's gynecological exams) to outrageous stories*(like the time she made Kate steal a cat from the pound) to*hilarious celebrations (including but not limited to parties for Kate's menstrual cycles),*Mother, Can you NOT?*lovingly lampoons the lengths to which our mothers will go to better our lives (even if it feels like they're ruining them in the process).
