Mumsnet
With the Mumsnet Book Club already thriving, we thought it about time we started reviewing grown up books and for this category we're looking to hand out the wooden spoon to the worst book you've read this year (that was published in the last year or so). Please add as many reviews as you like and feel free to comment on other folks' choices. As ever, if you have any suggestions for new categories you'd like to see, please send them over to contactus@mumsnet.com.

This really was awful - and the random snippets from the website (tip for the day, joke of the day etc) were just bewilderingly wrong. Couldnt bring myself to care about a single character.

pretty awful really. I persevered in case it got any better, and I'm not a picky reader. This is a book about a group of people who all contribute to an online "mums" community. Of course, one way or another, these people are all destined to meet and share each others lives. I just found it completely implausible, and contrived and not at all a realistic assessment of what I have found social sites like this one to be about.

Were there a book that I would say "leave well alone" it would be this one. The author should certainly leave writing well alone!
