I am currently reading The Secret Life of an Uncool Mum by Serena Terry from the Library (on my Libby app).

Book Description From Goodreads:
“From the creator of viral Tiktok sensation, Mammy Banter, 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 – with three kids, a loving husband, a very boring job – and instead of headlining Coachella, she’s in her pyjamas on a Friday night, watching cheesy TV.
It’s time for a mommy makeover. She’s going to show her teenage daughter she’s still cool. She’s going to show her husband she’s still an absolute ride. She’s going to 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 mom, still work full time, and still be Beyoncé…”
FIRST LINE:
“That’s Not Nutella
Everything is perfect. My house is perfect. My life is perfect. My children are perfect. My heart is full and at peace. Which can only mean one thing: the s**t is about to hit the fan.”
Would you carry on reading?
I am not very far into this book, but so far it is light and entertaining!

Happy Saturday!
Whew, it’s been a crazy week. I’m just now able to get to FLF. 😥
I’m just starting No Place Like Home by Jess Mastorakos.
“I don’t wanna go.” It was a simple statement, yet I worked very hard to keep a petulant pout off my lips as I looked at my manager in the mirror’s reflection.
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend! 🙂❤️📚
