Description
Kristin Newman spent her 20s and 30s dealing with the stresses of her high-pressure job as a television comedy writer, and the anxieties of watching most of her friends get married and start families while she wrestled with her own fear of both. Not ready to settle down and yet loathe to become a sad-sack single girl, Kristin instead started traveling the world, often alone, for a few months each year, falling madly in love with attractive locals who provided moments of the love she wanted without the cost of the freedom she needed. She introduces listeners to the Israeli bartenders, Argentinian priests, Finnish poker players, and sexy Bedouins who helped her transform into "Kristin-Adjacent" on the road - a quieter, less judgmental, and, yes, sluttier version of herself at home. Ultimately, Kristin's adventures led her to a better understanding of what she was actually running away from at home and why every life hurdle seemed to put her on a transatlantic flight to the unknown. Equal parts laugh-out-loud storytelling; thoughtful, candid reflection; and wanderlust-inspiring travel tales, What I Was Doing While You Were Breeding is a compelling and hilarious debut that will have listeners scrambling to renew their passports.

a fun but predictable read
So the travel stories are good, but the author doesn't really say much with this book. You can tell she was a sitcom writer. If you want something fun and irrelevant, this is the book for you. If you want a nuanced view of well, anything, look elsewhere.

Vapid
Some funny moments but I couldn't finish it. I came for inspiration, maybe some interesting insights from someone who chose not to settle down/have children. What I got was yet another story about men! All her foreign boyfriend's and how beautiful they were! If that weren't enough, its told by a clearly wealthy woman for whom money is not an object. Not down to earth in any way, and came off as excessive boasting.

Awful. Just...don’t
I don’t like writing negative reviews, but I felt it my duty to warn others before clicking the “purchase” button - please don’t. The narration is that of a valley girl and completely unlistenable. I thought I could get through the voice and tried my best to hang in there in case the book improved or there was a story I could identify with, but it was all just self important banter. It was just plain awful. Ugh. Who allowed this girl to narrate her own story!?!? Or, perhaps, that should’ve been my warning - she HAD to narrate her own story because no one else would.
