Such powerful, honest writing ...All through the story Ayelet Waldman maintains the balance between candidly demonstrating all her heroine's flaws and yet never once losing our sympathy...Fantastic' -- Kate Long, author of The Bad Mother's Handbook Waldman hooks us from page one ... Tells it with a wittiness and pace which never slacken * Independent on Sunday * What is excellent about this book is its realism, crisp observations, and the easy identification it successfully invites * Guardian * 'This book deals with a painful theme in the funniest, most touching and intelligent way. It charts the excruciatingly recognisable traits of mothering brilliantly. I read it in one sitting. I was filled with envy and awe -- Arabella Weir, author of Does My Bum Look Big in This?
