A fresh, hilarious, and relatable collection of essays about everything from motherhood and marriage to sobriety and work-life balance (or imbalance) from the nationally bestselling author of the “honest, complicated” (SheKnows) Idiot. TRIGGER WARNING: TORN EVERYTHING! In her first book, Idiot, bestselling author Laura Clery gave us mind-blowingly personal life stories about addiction, toxic relationships, and recovery—establishing herself as the preeminent voice of infinite conviction meets zero impulse control. Here she is two kids later asking, “How did we get here?” Sex. Sex is how we got here. Laura’s life has changed a great deal since she wrote Idiot, but her hilarious candor has only increased with motherhood—plus she tells some of the stories she was too scared to tell in her first book (which is really saying something). “Full of wit” (Publishers Weekly) and charm, Laura shares more than anyone wanted about: -Placenta pills, mom brain, and vibrator manifestation -Nipple-twisting orgies and flinging a butt burrito in your doctor’s face -ADHD, autism, postpartum depression, and the wisdom of a ninety-eight-year-old sage named Anne -Unsolicited dick, sexual assault, and sister-drugging -Cheating, fights, and forgiveness -Choosing love over fear and healing the world Laura does not hold back when it comes to sharing stories of screw-ups, triumphs, and learning from her mistakes. Whether she’s crying into a diaper in a Whole Foods parking lot or desperately soliciting advice from a random elderly stranger (who has most certainly considered a restraining order), Laura is able to laugh at herself even during her worst moments—more importantly, she makes us laugh, cry, and feel less alone in the world.

The world is flooded with baby books, but why is the focus always on the parents? Why don't the babies ever get a say? Subjected to a torrent of swearing as she enters the world, followed by an outpouring of guilt that these are the first words she'll have heard, Emily is under no false pretences as to what life as a new-born will be like. This worldly-wise, wilful, yet wonderful baby tells it like it is, from her own unique perspective, offering bemused and often withering insights into the panics, stresses and insecurities of her parents as they try to guide her, or at the very least keep her alive, through her first year of life. Milk, Meltdowns and a Mediocre Mummy is a fantastically frank and funny book, which will strike a chord with any parent, whether you're just learning the ropes, or consider yourself an old hand.

The Big Blue Jobbie The Caging of a Well-Padded Scotswoman In March 2020 the Prime Minister told Mrs V to shield for 12 weeks. Then for a bit longer. And just a little bit longer. No cuddles, no snogging, no tasting other people's cocktails to see if they were nicer than hers; pick a spot and stay put. This was bad news for everyone, except possibly the ice cream industry. Mrs V immediately laid claim to the dining room and created her little slice of self-isolation. From her perch in Covid Corner, she blogged about the daily ups and downs of family life in lockdown, keeping her readers laughing as the world got weirder. This book is a compilation of those posts, along with lots of extra bits and commentary. Like Mrs V, it's slightly unconventional, quirky, full of warmth (both the loving and the menopausal kind) and has a filthy sense of humour.
