5.0 out of 5 stars Ms Calman does it again!, 24 Sep 2008
By Mrs. J. A. Hage (Kent) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: How Not to Murder Your Mother (Hardcover)
Ms Calman hits the jackpot once more with How 'not' to murder your mother! Having nodded in agreement all the way through Confessions of a Bad Mother and Failed Grown up I wasn't sure if, given my own wonderful relationship with my mother, How 'not' to Murder Your Mother would ring true. My goodness me! I laughed, I cried and I did nod along! A very honest and heartfelt book that anyone who has ever had a mother should read!

5.0 out of 5 stars Far too funny to be quite so accurate., 1 Jul 2009
By Ms. Fiona Allen "catlover" (edinburgh, uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: How Not to Murder Your Mother (Hardcover)
I bought this at lunchtime today & have almost finished, it's that kind of book. I had to stop to take my mascara off because i was crying with laughter - and yet there are sections where I felt just as murderous and frustrated as I do with my own mother. (oops). Unless you were brought up by wolves or the Waltons, someone you know - and it could be you - needs this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Will I turn into my Mother ... ?!!, 27 Jul 2009
This is a wonderful book! For those of us who've swapped PMT (Pre-Menstrual Tension) for PMT (Permanent Maternal Tension) this book's an MHMR (Must Have Must Read). Wonderful combination of the frustrational combination of love and annoyance, which'll have you laughing and crying in equal measure, and Calman's ability to switch between the two emotions is extraordinary. In spite of the title, this is a book written with immense affection. I love it, and will buy it for anyone I know who has a 'senior' parent.
