About this listen

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…

I actually read her Christmas book before this one as I wanted to read it on the run up to Christmas and I loved it so much it made me want to read this book and it was absolutely brilliant. Made me laugh so much, but also some parts are relatable being a mum and a woman but also I just fell in love with all the characters and Serena reading she totally brought them all to life. This is a brilliant listen and I highly recommend it.

What a "ride"

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.

Amazeballs!
