Synopsis

It's impossible to ignore how life has changed since COVID-19 spread across the world. People from all over quarantined and did their best to keep on going during the pandemic. Zibby Owens, host of the award-winning podcast Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books and a mother of four herself, wanted to do something to help people carry on and to give them something to focus on other than the horrors of their news feeds. So she launched an online magazine called We Found Time.

Authors who had been on her podcast wrote original, brilliant essays for busy readers. Zibby organized these profound pieces into themes inspired by five things moms don't have time to do: eat, read, work out, breathe, and have sex. Now compiled as an anthology named Moms Don't Have Time To, these beautiful, original essays by dozens of bestselling and acclaimed authors speak to the ever-increasing demands on our time, especially during the quarantine, in a unique, literary way.

Goodreads review by Esther on January 08, 2021

The rave reviews and the introduction in the book really hyped me up, but many of the 'essays' were a bit of a let down and felt more like reading affluent ladies' blog posts. There were some good ones which touched me, but there were also quite a few that felt like lacking any substance and some fe......more

Goodreads review by Brandy on September 14, 2021

This group of articles about life during quarantine was so enjoyable. FYI, while there were some tragic stories of loss, for the most part, the focus was not on that. The Mom’s Don’t Have Time To articles are separated into sections such as eat, read, workout etc. I found so many of them to be extrem......more

Goodreads review by Danielle on February 14, 2021

This is a collection of short essays in response to the pandemic and quarantining with kids that moms everywhere are sure to relate to. Divided into categories of things that moms no longer have time to do - read, work out, eat, have sex, or breathe. While I was previously unfamiliar with Owens and......more
