Why you’ll fall in love with Why Mummy Drinks?

Discover a sarcastic and candid take on the everyday life of a modern mother who refuses to bow to societal pressure and motherhood stereotypes.

This brilliant book by Gill Sims, author of the online phenomenon Peter and Jane, takes you into the world of the protagonist Mummy on her momentous 39th birthday. Rather than meekly accepting a future among women with “sensible haircuts” who live solely for their children and compete over their kids’ achievements, Mummy decides to take matters into her own hands. With a large glass of wine in hand and “FML” on her lips, she chooses her own path - full of humour, self-mockery and the courage to be different.

Your journey through the pages of this book is packed with funny moments every mum will recognise, and unexpected situations that show being honest with yourself and resisting peer pressure is not only refreshing but liberating. Why Mummy Drinks is the perfect companion for anyone who wants a light-hearted yet truthful view of the daily challenges of motherhood, delivered with cynical humour and humanity.
