The Pissed-Off Parents Club (2010)

First-time mum Roxy is feeling a bit lost and lonely since she moved out of London to a Berkshire village with her partner Jack and baby daughter Joey. Jack is still commuting to the city for work and with both of them continually tired, arguments are the order of the day. Trying the usual mother-and-baby groups just doesn't work so Roxy forms her own - the Pissed-Off Parents Club - which meets sans kids at the pub. If you want a book about yummy mummies whose kids exit stage right immediately, hardly to be seen again, then this isn't the book for you. But if you're feeling fed up, and finding parenting harder than anything you've done before, then you'll enjoy joining Roxy's club.
