About the Book

Perennially ticked-off first-time mum Roxy, her husband Jack and their daughter Joey, are building a new life for themselves in sunny Sydney, Australia, but Roxy is finding it hard to settle down. When she discovers she's pregnant again, things become even more complicated– how will she cope with a second child?

Frustrated at the lack of places for stressed-out mums to go, Roxy and her new friend Shoshanna set up Just Another Manic Mum-Day– a café catering exclusively for parents (with registered child-minders on site, not to mention a liquor licence!). But when an opportunity arises for Roxy to return to England, she realises just how much she's missed home . . .

Highly original, jam-packed with laugh-out-loud twists and turns and unreservedly frank about the truths of modern parenting, Just Another Manic Mum-Day is the perfect read for fans of comic commercial fiction, regardless of their parental status!

Just Another Manic Mum-Day is available from all good booksellers now. To read a first chapter extract visit Mink’s website.

Mink Elliott’s debut novel, The Pi**ed-Off Parents Club is also available to buy now.
