Blurb; Have you ever wondered what secrets other mothers are keeping?
Jenny has too much on her plate: literally – she’s only pregnant with one child but she’s already eating for three. Not to mention trying to juggle her future life with a baby, a nightmare boss, a know-it-all sister, and a bizarrely laid back husband.
She used to be famous for her ‘Single Girl About Town’ journalism. But not only is she bored of parties, she also hasn’t been single for years, and is now 8½ months pregnant.
So when her boss hands her column to a younger colleague, Jenny panics and proposes instead writing about being a clueless new mum. Surely people will find her new friendship group fascinating? Even if the only thing they have in common is that they all had sex around the same time 9 months ago…
Like – what’s the deal with scary Gail’s mystery husband? How is posh mum Antonia already out drinking when Jenny can barely make a cup of tea? Why isn’t sweet-natured Ruth answering any phone calls?
And if her readers aren’t quite hooked yet, maybe Jenny will just have to be more liberal with the truth. After all, none of the other mums will read it… will they?
My Review; This is actually the perfect book for all mums to be and mums to enjoy and have a giggle at! It has EVERYTHING, Emma has not left out the bits that others do. It has all the ups, down and all the wobbly bits in between! This had me laughing out loud in parts. An easy to read, fast paced belter of a story. I would highly recommend to you all.
I loved Jenny and all the girls and how they all represent different mums with differing views on life. I awarded a well deserved five stars! I cannot wait to read more by Emma in future. I have enjoyed and loved reading every minute of this story at all daft hours in the morning with my newborn so I can relate to many parts in this story.
It’s one of those stories you wont want to put down when you start… Very impressed.
