Parents worry when their kids struggle academically, but they lose sleep when their kids don't have friends. This is the book that will teach those parents how to help their child be more socially successful, happier, and more confident. For the families who need it, this book will be a great relief.

This book is a game changer; it is going to transform the lives of so many children (and parents) for the better. Caroline Maguire’s passion and knowledge to help parents find real-life, functional solutions to their children’s social skills are showcased front and center with this book. Why Will No One Play with Me? is a reader-friendly, practical guide, a beacon of hope and actionable help for a problem parents too often think they’ll have to live with for life. Once you read this book, you’ll see why you’ll never have to hear your child ask that heartbreaking question again.

I want to recommend this brilliant book called Five Minute Mum by the lovely Daisy Upton. She basically came up with 150 different activities you can do with your kids that take five minutes to set up and five minutes to put away.

Daisy has created a book for the whole family, making rainy days enjoyable! It is empowering as a Mum to know with every game you are helping your children build knowledge and skills.

A humblingly honest and human war-report from the front lines of mothering, psychosis and recovery: there is no other book like it, and it is so desperately needed.

Amazing. This book is proof that although Laura’s mind was her undoing, it is also an incredible asset which is going to help so many people.

Laura’s raw, honest book gets to the core of postpartum psychosis. Her style is blunt, graphic, diary-like, unflinchingly confessional - at times so colloquial that we feel we know her, or we want to know her: for her bravery in writing this book, for her humanity, for her sisterhood. She has emerged with a greater understanding of self, with deeper compassion for those who suffer from mental illness, and with a determination to combat stigma and ignorance by speaking out. Ultimately I hope this book will give women and their families confidence that the brain and body will heal. And I hope it will encourage other women to speak out.

An incredibly powerful book. Brave, brilliant and so, so important.

This book will bring hope to many women and their partners who have struggled with their mental health during this already nerve-wracking and overwhelming time.

Raw, powerful, visceral: this book has so much to offer to anyone who reads it, whether they be a pregnant woman, new mother, partner, midwife, or someone recovering from mental illness. It is so important on so many levels to hear experiences like Laura’s to widen our understanding of these issues and how they can affect us.

I cried, laughed and cried again. It’s therapeutic to read and bloody amazing. This book will help to raise awareness and help people understand what it’s like to go through this, to see light at the end of the tunnel and know you won’t always feel like this.

I absolutely loved this book. It’s so honest I related to the rawness of it all. There was so much I could identify with.

An important book and I have no doubt it will have a significant impact.

This is a generous, humane, brave gift of a book. Its guts and humour spoke to me loud and clear. I wept for Laura, women I love, and ones I’ve never met, many times throughout. There’s a conspiracy of silence around so many of areas of birth and new motherhood, and Laura is breaking the glass ceiling of it, with glorious honesty, humour and humility. I salute you, Laura - you’re a fucking warrior!

A humblingly honest and human war report from the front lines of mothering, psychosis and recovery: there is no other book like it, and it is so desperately needed.

This moving book was a pleasure to read and I didn't want to put it down. If anyone is going through a similar experience it will make them feel less alone.

Dockrill's raw yet ultimately hopeful account of her experience with postpartum psychosis shines an important light on a rarely discussed experience.

Bold, brave and raw, it must have taken immense courage to write this phenomenal memoir… It’s a tough read, but hugely inspiring…told with a winning dash of humour, and provides desperately needed insight into postnatal mental health

What Have I Done? is heartbreaking and brutal in its honesty, and it is remarkable that Dockrill has managed to wring black comedy out of so much suffering… [the book] offer[s] a hand of solidarity to other women, as well as the assurance that there is a way through

I tore through EXPECTATION at the weekend. Exceptional gorgeously written and reads like a love letter to London. I highly recommend it

A story that resonates with anyone who has tried and failed and tried again as they contemplate that gap between what is possible and what is not.

The story of 3 college friends, if you're a fan of Sally Rooney, you'll love EXPECTATION

Fantastic. Beautifully written, sharply observed and saying important things

BOOK OF THE YEAR. It's the book we're all buying for our sisters and besties this Christmas.

Brings to vivid life that particular tension one feels just before middle age, when it begins to become clear that life won’t end up looking exactly they way we thought it would. An outstanding novel

Anna Hope's beautifully observed study of female friendship is a moving account of the collision between aspiration and reality

Fantastically well-realised portrait of female friendship's joys and pains from an exciting new voice in British fiction
