Synopsis

'Refreshing and honest ... this isn't your standard mum memoir' Psychologies Magazine

How to hold it together, even when things are falling apart.

Laugh, cry and scream along the rollercoaster of family life as Rachaele Hambleton journeys through the parts nobody talks about; the 'wow' moments, triumphs, tears and tantrums. This book covers everything we don't teach our kids in school, understanding neurodiversity, having heartbreaking conversations and healing from being broken.

Rachaele's deeply personal story reveals the raw truths of parenting chaos, ever-changing family dynamics and the art of keeping it together against all odds. With unflinching honesty, and bags of heart and humour, this memoir shows real messy life and offers a lifeline for anyone struggling. Above all, it tells us we are not alone.

'In a world of social-media gloss, Hambleton [is] unusually frank about the mess of life' iNews

'Powerful and candid ... it will make you laugh and cry' Woman's Own

Goodreads review by Gemma

I love following PTWM and so far have read the first two books Rachaele has written, to be honest this book doesn’t really tell me anything I didnt know from Instagram and for £9.99 on kindle that’s kind of disappointing. The family all seem lovely and the book is interesting but it’s just not new i......more

An ok book, not the usual sort of book I choose to go for. I quite like and follow the author on Instagram so thought I would try one of her books. It's written in the way she usually speaks during lives or stories and that was quite nice, but for me I prefer to watch or listen to this type of conten......more

Just lovely I have followed Rachaele from what feels like the start of her social media journey! I remember the love heart wall in the old house, how warm and welcoming her home always felt even just seeing it online. This book is again filled with kindness, simple human behaviours that if we all ha......more
