Welcome to Litsy!

#CoverLove Day 6: #Yellow. Two very funny books. Joe Lycett can be so funny at times. Plus I love Gil Sims book series.

I wasn't sure I liked this initially, but I gave it a couple of chapters... LOVED IT.
I think my relationship with my boyfriend is identical to Ellen and Simon (or gadget twat as she calls him) 🤣 I also believe her inlaws may actually be based on mine?! 😆
This was just the light-hearted, fun read that I needed after a couple of heavy books. I've ordered the rest of the series to snigger along to. I should also stock up on wine!

This mummy drinks because her kids, boyfriend, family, and clients drive her to it.
Escaping the rabble to have a glass (bottle) of Shiraz and a bubbly bath in peace!
Only the dog hasn't irritated me to some degree today 🤣
You can guarantee I'm not making the Vietnamese pork I had planned for tea. We're having a takeout pizza. Mummy's doing nothing for the rest of the night 🤣

I think every mum in the world has these days 🤣🤣🤣

Decided i needed a little light read and decided on this enjoying it so far.

I love the why mummy series. They crack me up and are so relatable.

Meh. I couldn't really relate to the protagonist in this one, not being a mum, so I think a lot of the humour was lost on me. It did give me a couple of laugh out loud moments though when talking about the Gadget Tw*t, very much reminded me of my own partner!

Day 8 of @Andrew65 's #Top20series #20series20days challenge

This series is so funny. Number 4 isn't actually out till October 15, I have included it as it is the last in the series and if you are new to them then you need to know that this book exists.

I first read Gill Sims's blog on Facebook under the name of Peter and Jane. I don't have kids but I have friends/family members who do and have seen them go through these situations.

Omg I have not laughed out loud like that for a long time to anyone who is a mom this book will have u laughing 😂

This was brilliant! It was so funny. I loved the way she told you the ideal situation and how she planned to do things with her children and then flipped it around and told you what really happens - absolute chaos 🤣

Hammock time with my girls. Which of course means I‘m barely reading. 😂

These mega long summer holidays make me want to reach for the #tequila. 😆 I remember this being a fun, easy, little read. Looking forward to reading the next one in the series. #ayupaugust

I started this last night and am only a few chapters in, but it had me spitting my wine out in laughter multiple times. This should be fun!

I also did a little rearranging and made us a nice area to hold our drinks. 🤞my husband doesn‘t try to take it over with piles of stuff as he does with every available surface we already have.

I have chosen the tagged book for my #yearlyreadingplan

Good. Enjoyed the entertaining look through a year in the life of a family. Laughed out loud at most of it as I have seen it all happen to friends and family and can relate even though I don't have children myself. Recommend to everyone.

I was unsure of this book when I picked it up but I was hooked right from the start. Being a mum to a 6 year old boy I completely relate to this book. It has had me gripped all the way through and has been a lovely easy read.

This was so real and very funny. As a mum I could relate to much of this story. We all have those moments of doubt and should talk more. I liked that the book developed through the course of a year touching on all the big moments. The story was interesting and funny. I had a worry it was going to lead to her doing something bad and I'm so glad it didn't.

So cynical and negative. If I want to listen to constant whining I‘ll talk to ....well....anyone. I read to escape reality. This book is too boringly real. But also provides no new perspectives or insights.

Trying another audiobook that might not put me to sleep 😂😂😂

I have mixed feelings. Overall I loved this book. Hilarious, great message. But I cannot get over the massive stereotype she has perpetuated about breastfeeding mums. For a book stating 'we're all in this together', the way in which she writes about a character breastfeeding her kids is condescending, and I just can't get over that bit to give it the full 5. 4🌟 from me.

Come for the title. Stay for the funny, honest, relatable story.

So very jealous of all your #24in48 posts! This is my current view. Partner away at a wedding, toddler making a mess, baby refusing to be put down and I'm still in PJs. Maybe I can join in in a few years yeah?! 😂

I can neither confirm nor deny that I was making the toddler Cheesy pasta when I reached the 5:30pm entry....
I laughed. Hard.
I also gave him fruit for afters 😂

Less than $5. How could I not?! Ok, so this year I will not to buy anything new, with the exception of a book for book club if it isn‘t available any other way. Attacking my own TBR - both hard copies and eBooks is the plan - as many others have posted about! But really, if it doesn‘t happen it doesn‘t matter .
I did do a massive clean out of books on my shelf a couple of years ago. Got sick of the pressure of them so donated them unread.

I laughed out loud at this paragraph! It‘s like she is living my life 😂 Such a fantastic author.

Anyone else follow peter and jane on FB, if not its really good, this is her first book looks really funny!

Tip: Don't buy on Amazon as its £12.48 but get it in Asda as its £4 or Tesco £6 or 2 for £7 in both! 📚📖

On Facebook I follow a blog called Peter and Jane its all about this author and her family life. Its very funny and worth reading everyday. This her first book its fiction so its probably loosely based on her so buy it and enjoy!!!
