Was so tempted to give up on this book, but glad I stuck to it.
When I first started reading this it was like Mink Elliott was describing my life. A great read especially if you've got a little one between 0-1 years, your find your not alone in what you feel. Wish I had read this book back then.
I received this book from Goodreads giveaways. I wanted to read this book as I'll be going to Japan next year and thought it might be intreasting to read and get a feeling for the place and I'll certaintly be looking out for little things now and thinking of Steph.
As soon as Glass Geishas landed on my doormat and I opened to the prologue I couldn't wait to read more. Steph thought she was going to make quick easy money but didn't know about what was happening to her friends Julia and Annabel. As soon as Steph arrives in Japan and can't find Annabel things start to worry Steph and she's on a mission to find out what has happened to Annabel with the help from Annabels diary. But needing money slows her search down. I also loved the charater of Mama, hearing about her life as she was telling George the Journalist, who was writing her book. It was a bit annoying when I had to go back to the main story as I wanted to know more.
I did enjoy reading this but found the further I got into it the slower I got reading it. The jumping between Steph, Mama and Chastity got a bit annoying for me as it felt I was being stopped from reading what I was getting into. I'm glad I stuck to it and finished it, a good read.

After reading some of the reviews for this book I thought it was going to be one of them that I'll put to one side half way though reading for a couple of months, then try and go back to, but I really enjoyed this book. I hated putting it down cause the emotion of Sam stayed with me, that heart breaking loss. Loved all the characters. So glad I gave it a chance.
Confessions of a Bad Mother: In the Aisle by the Chill Cabinet No-one Can Hear You Scream by Stephanie Calman
A easy and very enjoyable book with so many truths that had me remembering and laughing every day i picked it up
well this one was hard going. I wanted to put it down as a bad read but was determined to finish it and glad I did. It got so much better at the end but I knew the ending before I got there it was so obvious.
This book had it all for me. Funny, boring and annoying. Found this quite funny in places with Mo, then annoyance with Dora, where I just wanted to slap her. Oscar was the parts I found a bit boring and couldn't wait to get back to Mo. Near the end of the book is where I couldn't put it down, just wish it was like that all the way though. Maybe I was expecting to much from Dawn. Loved the ending that made the book for me.
What a waste of time reading this book. I could of just slapped Rebecca all the way though this book. Was hopeing it would get better as the book went on but sadly, no.
