Busy Mom Books – FAQ

Welcome to the FAQ section for BusyMomBooks.com — your go-to spot for short, powerful reads and real-life book advice made for moms who don’t have time to waste. If you’ve got questions, you’re probably juggling 10 things at once, so we’ll keep this quick and helpful. 💗

1. What is BusyMomBooks.com?

Busy Mom Books is a blog and book hub for moms who want personal growth, peace of mind, or writing success — without reading 400-page manuals. We recommend life-changing books, short reads, and indie publishing guides built for the busiest women on the planet.

2. Who runs this site?

Hi, I’m Rachel Monroe — a writer, bookworm, and mom who knows what it’s like to reheat the same cup of coffee three times. I built this space for moms who are tired, inspired, and still showing up.

3. I barely have time to read. Is this site still for me?

Yes! That’s the whole point.
We focus on:

  • Bite-sized book recommendations
  • Fast, actionable takeaways
  • Mom-tested guides for writing and self-publishing
  • Tools that respect your time, not waste it

4. What kind of content will I find here?

You’ll find:

  • 📚 Book lists for overwhelmed moms
  • 🧠 Self-help and mindset books that are actually readable
  • ✍️ Writing & publishing help for moms with no budget or time
  • 💬 Honest takes (no fluff, no gatekeeping, no guilt)

5. Can I suggest a book for the site?

Yes, please do! If a book helped you survive a rough week or changed your mindset in five pages or less — we want to know about it.
👉 Contact us here to share your rec.

6. I want to start writing — do you offer help?

Absolutely. Whether you’re journaling to stay sane or secretly dreaming of publishing a book, we offer:

  • Beginner-friendly book writing tips
  • Reviews of tools that don’t require tech skills
  • Posts on publishing without going broke

Check out our Writer Blocks category to get started.

7. Do you accept guest posts?

We do! If you’re a fellow mom, writer, or book-lover with a story or list to share, visit our Write for Us page for contributor guidelines. We welcome honest, helpful content — especially from voices who don’t usually get heard.

8. How do you choose which books to recommend?

Every book we feature goes through the Busy Mom Filter:

  • Is it short or easy to read in pieces?
  • Does it solve a real-life mom problem?
  • Does it actually help or inspire?

If a book makes our chaotic lives better — it makes the list.

9. Do you make money from book links?

Yes — some of our links are Amazon affiliate links. That means if you buy a book through our recommendation, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. It helps keep this site going and keeps the coffee warm. ☕ Thank you for your support!

10. Can I advertise on BusyMomBooks.com?

We’re open to select brand partnerships that align with our mission — especially book-related products, writing tools, or self-care resources made for moms.
