Description
Is your Christmas to-do list more like a never-ending roll-call of obligations?
Are your fairy lights more tangled than your tights drawer?
And are your homemade mince pies more pie in the sky than reality?
Join the club.
Meet Laurie: a working mother of two who is at the end of her tinsel. All she really wants for Christmas is five minutes of peace (and another Bailey’s in her coffee).
With a disastrously chaotic family Christmas brewing, Laurie has a choice to make. Should she double down on her perfectly manufactured festive cheer? Or burn the Pinterest board and embrace her imperfections so that she can have some fun too?
If you’ve spent more Christmases surviving than thriving, it’s time to join Laurie in ditching the colour-coded spreadsheets, letting the kids (and adults) stay in their pyjamas until 3 p.m. and finally raising a toast to say, ‘F##k it, it’s Christmas’.
A laugh-out-loud novel for fans of Amandaland, The F##k It List and Why Mummy Drinks.
