Mumsnet Talk
"The country's most popular meeting point for parents"
The Times
X Factor - making the song their own?
Not just an M&S ad - it's a sexist ad?
Wotsits or wine - home delivery substitutes?
Corsa? Yaris? - car-inspired baby names?
Cheesed off - with pregnancy food advice?

Funny and well written, very easy to enjoy. Kept me awake a few nights, highly addictive -like a box of chocolates those little chapters - just one more...!
Believable, interesting characters, a brilliant light read, outstanding in its class, would get a rosette if it was a horse or a guinea pig, no doubt about it.

Fantastic read. Great characters which are fully formed and easy to empathise with.
(Nice short chapters too, so it's easy to squeeze a couple in between chores!)
