After becoming disillusioned with the parenting literature she had read online, Sarah Turner started writing as The Unmumsy Mum.

Instead of reading about mums who were managing to have it all, she wanted tales of mums tearing their hair out after yet another sleepless night and endless re-runs of Peppa Pig.

She began her blog and Facebook page of the same name, which gained quick success and led her to write the book.

In her new book, The Unmumsy Mum Dairy, Sarah shares with us a year in her life as a mum of two boys, a wife, blogger and bestselling author. W

ith candour and humour, she documents the good days and the bad days, the giggles and the tantrums. She’ll also share poignant, life-changing moments from her year, such as her older son heading off through the school gates for the first time.

You will have the chance to get to know her even better at An Evening With the Unmumsy Mum, organised by Chorleywood Bookshop on March 6 at 7.30pm.
