Summary

Includes exclusive audiobook-only bonus content with @MammyBanter herself.

From the creator of viral Tiktok sensation, @MammyBanter, comes a hilarious warts-and-all novel about modern motherhood – and how having it all sometimes isn’t what you think it might be.

She used to want it all. Now she just wants a nap.

Tara Gallagher is knackered. She used to dream of being Beyoncé but suddenly she’s thirty-six and instead of headlining Glastonbury, she’s in her pyjamas on a Friday night, watching Gogglebox.

It’s time for a mammy makeover. She’s going to show her teenage daughter she’s still cool. Show her husband she’s still an absolute ride. And show her colleagues she’s still a Boss Bish.

But most of all, she’s going to prove to herself that she can still be a mum, still work full time, and still be Beyoncé…

Love it!!

I have really enjoyed this book, I have been listening to it on my dog walks (I look a little strange when I lol and people don’t realise I am listening to something) I also listen to it in the car on my way to work.
It is totally relatable and a true account of real parenting, warts and all.
Can’t wait to read the Christmas one too, please keep them coming.
I love your accent too, so easy to listen to.

Absolutely Brilliant

I follow Mammy Banter on social media and my sister recommended the book. OMG I could't stop listening to it, I found myself going out for long walks so I could listen to the audio book!

Loved the story line and was gutted when it ended, I enjoyed it even more because it was read by Serena Terry.

Really recommend this book to everyone, it actually made me laugh out loud! Can't wait to now start the next one

Amazeballs!

Thank you Serena for a marvellous book full of laughs. All of it so relatable but most mums are too embarrassed or ashamed to admit it. I have to admit the ending was a bit of a surprise for me. I was imaging Tara going down a different route, that was bloody marvellous too. Serenas narration is spot on and brings the book alive.
