‘It’s just a phase,’ they said. ‘These are the happiest years of your life,’ they said…Mother of one and professional writer Saoirse (pronounced Seersha, not Searcy – thanks a bunch Game of Thrones!) is still adjusting to the demands of motherhood, four years after the birth of her daughter, Anna.Living in the claustrophobic London suburb of Woodvale, and being surrounded by passive-aggressive mum-wars, isn’t helping. Neither is her increasingly pent-up anger at her once-perfect husband. Her only comrade in arms, best friend Bea, is the one thing keeping her sane.When Saoirse’s agent asks her to pitch for a book, she is horrified to discover the topic is motherhood.

The novel may or may not have been inspired by real life…
