Allison Pearson, author of I Don't Know How She Does It and I Think I Love You, was interviewed on NPR last February (actually, on Rose's birthday!).  I just caught her wonderful interview via podcast.  I think she has her door open to the female psyche, both young and not so young.

In a world where people often try to sugar coat things or tell you what they think you want to hear,  I love hearing from and talking with people that can be completely honest about their feelings and the basic truths of this and that no matter how silly, shameful, or embarrassing they might be.   I try to surround myself with people that possess this refreshing quality.

Her books are on my reading list.
