'CHAOTIC, SNARKY, VERY FUNNY' GOOD HOUSEKEEPING

'AN ABSOLUTELY WILD RIDE' INDEPENDENT

A 'HOTTEST, MUST-LISTEN NEW BOOK FOR 2025' IN SUNDAY TIMES, STYLIST, INDEPENDENT AND SERVICE95

Maybe having a few enemies on the school run means you're doing something right…

Florence knows all about failure. After a dismal end to her 2000s girlband career, she’s moping around West London, single, broke and unfulfilled. The only things she’s proud of are her increasingly elaborate nail art choices – and her ten-year-old son, Dylan.

But when Alfie Risby, Dylan's bitter class rival and the child heir to a frozen foods empire, mysteriously vanishes on a school trip, Dylan becomes a prime suspect. Florence has to get her act together, find the missing boy and clear her son’s name or risk losing him forever. The only problem? She doesn’t have any detective skills, she’s not exactly popular at the school gates and she’s just found Alfie’s backpack hidden under Dylan’s bed…

All the Other Mothers Hate Me is an irresistibly witty novel about fitting in, starting over and the lengths we’ll go to for the people we love.

a fun tale

I thought I had it solved a quarter of the way in, and while it did drag on in places I was wrong with almost all of my assumptions, and the ending was very satisfying!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
