Critics Review
Bloody hilarious. Whether you’re about to pop, thinking about it or staring at the ruins of your social life and watching CBeebies, this book is essential reading. Ellie jumps from the seriousness to the ridiculousness of parenting with ease and unbridled joy – Cariad Lloyd
Not just a very honest book about becoming a mother but a very very honest book about being a woman and navigating all the choices and not-choices that this involves. Ellie has unpacked so much about what motherhood takes from us, even as it hands marvellous things to us.She has written a book that made me feel an incredible surge of love for myself and for all the mothers who have gone before me. I want my daughters to read this book
