A Refreshingly Honest Look at Motherhood
As a new mum, I have often felt I am getting it wrong, I am not cut out for this, my child is the spawn of Satan..... this book let's you know you are not the only one to think these things.
Looking at everything from the sleepless nights to mum guilt, making the same mistakes as others, and not living up to your own expectations, the book tells you it's okay to feel like crap, most mum's do, and does so in a very funny way.
Though it has taken me about 4 months to read (since I only get through about 5 pages a week on that rear occasion my son falls asleep in his pram long enough for me to order a coffee and get my book out) it is an easy one to pick up and put down. Since it is not a story, but a look back at both the highs and lows of motherhood.
An absolute must for all new mum's!

The pacing was good, the use of music was so impressive. The cast were amazing and the story lines were believable and relatable (0 more)
Some of the violence (0 more)
Thrilling interesting and twisty
I really loved this series and while I sometimes flinched away at the use of sexual violence it portrayed it did so with a purpose rather then to revel in the responses.
As a single mother I could relate to the struggles of motherhood when even when you try your best you never feel good enough.
