'Life-affirming' -- The Bookseller

Product Description

Outside the school gates of Farquhars school, the gossip hums, the SUVs swarm and Boden abounds. But, here, three women are about to discover that friends are the only accessories they will need. Working mum Alison is devoted to her daughter, but since juggling motherhood with a career has left her with a permanent headache, a larger family is the only thing Not on her to-do list...Trophy wife Katherine seems rich, glamorous and care-free. In fact, her husband only ever touches her as he guides her into social functions, and her kids barely know she exists either. Stay-at-home mum Gwen has three lovely kids and a blissful marriage to Rob. It seems like she has it all - until two bombshells cause her perfect world to crumble. A deliciously warm, funny and moving take on being a mum, making new friends and dealing with the posturing and politics of the playground - something we never really leave behind...

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT READ - COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN!!!, 1 Mar 2006
Bought this book at the start of the week and finished it already. Fab. Really funny, touching and spot-on about being a mum, especially those with school age kids. Some of the situations the mums gets themselves into are hysterical. Absolutely loved it. Would definitely recommend! Great present for mothers day!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved this book., 8 Mar 2006
By A Customer
Loved this book, could not put it down. As a "school-run-Mum" I really related to it and could put a Mum's name from my children's school playground to every character in the book. A great book and would recommend to any other "school-run-Mum".

5.0 out of 5 stars For school mums everywhere!, 1 Mar 2006
By A Customer
A great read, couldn't put it down. If you have ever done the school run and wondered about the lives of the other mums standing around the school gates, then you will love this. Makes you laugh and cringe, but overall will make tomorrow's drop off a lot more enjoyable.
Well done Kirsty, hard to believe this is your first book. When do we get Duncan's story??
