The Little Book of Anxiety
Are you feeling okay? Is something worrying you? Feeling a little ... anxious? You could try thinking positive, meditation, exercise, dancing like no one's watching. Or you could read this book and reassure yourself that through the agonies of sleepless nights and irrational fears, you are not alone. With humour, insight and searing honesty, The Little Book of Anxiety explores the trials and sheer absurdities of living a worried life. From crazed nail biting to fearing her husband is dead when he's late home from work, Kerri Sackville is the poster girl for panic and an expert on how to ride its adrenalin wave. This book may very well save your sanity.
The Life-changing Magic of a Little Bit of Mess
The only domestic bible you'll need. There is nothing more satisfying than a beautifully organised home! say the #homeinspo influencers. In an era of decluttering gurus, cleaning bloggers and aspirational pantries, Kerri Sackville has studied the evidence and declared, 'Nah, way too much trouble.' Instead, she has embraced domestic imperfection and discovered the life-changing magic of letting your standards slip. In this, her magnum opus, Kerri explains why cleanliness is not next to godliness, why decluttering is the enemy of joy and why no-one cares about your messy bedroom. With affirmations for the mess-challenged (#DisarrayIsOkay!), cleaning hacks that actually work (*Don't Have Childr...
When My Husband Does the Dishes
"When My Husband Does the Dishes (He usually wants sex!) is about what love looks like after three children and 150 years of togetherness. It's about little white lies and boxer shorts on the floor and eating frankfurters for dinner every night. It's my life. And I suspect it could be yours too. Do you spend pretty much every other waking minute fantasising about having a housekeeper? Have you ever woken up to a Bad Face Day? Do the words 'Impulse Buy' have you nodding knowingly? Is your cupboard full of super-size jars of Nutella? (Ok, this last one may just be me). If so, you are part of my sisterhood and this book is for you." Part memoir, part survival guide for the (un)Domestic(ated) Goddess, When My Husband Does the Dishes... is a must read for all women - accurate, clever and very, very funny. And you never know, husbands, partners and lovers might find it vaguely amusing too. If they're allowed to read it!
