Product Description (From amazon)
The Bad Mother's Handbook is the story of a year in the lives of Charlotte, Karen and Nan, none of whom can quite believe how things have turned out. Why is it all so difficult? Why do the most ridiculous mistakes have the most disastrous consequences? When are you too old to throw up in a flowerbed after too much vodka? When are you too young to be a mother? Both hilarious and wise, it is a clear-eyed look at motherhood - and childhood - in its many guises, from the moment the condom breaks to the moment you file for divorce or, more optimistically, from the moment you hear your baby's first cry to the moment you realize that there are as many sorts of mother as there are children, and that love sometimes is the most important thing of all.

Over the past weeks I have been cleaning shelves, coming across books that I had almost forgotten I had in hand.
Since I always try a book, I also started reading this one. I read nearly 100 pages (when I have doubts about a book, that's the point where I decide to read on or leave it) and I'm sorry to have to say that this is not my kind of book.
The good news is, that it'll be travelling to a new reader very soon :-)

Woo hoo! I won - thanks so much! I'm going away for a few nights for work away from my children so this seems like an appropriate read to take with me as I abandon them.....
