About this deal

She is very funny in how she describes things and you find yourself laughing along with her and cheering her own.

Additionally some of the Irish references and terms were lost on me (some are listed in the back, which I didn’t realize until I got to the end of the book). I am actually gutted that Tara is fictional, because I felt she has became a new friend by end of this and I was a bit upset that I had to say goodbye to her. I will add that Paul is an absolute diamond in this book, he is patient, and loving and lets Tara have her “moment”.She wants to prove to her husband that she is still a complete ride and prove to her coworkers that she's still the boss. When we get a bit older, and especially when we have girls, women often lose touch with old friends. There are plenty of cringe-worthy moments too, when the youngest poo’s and of course the many mentions of poo with her youngest two will both gross you out and make you chuckle with laughter.

It has also enabled and enhanced communications helping individuals and organisations to stay in touch, be responsive and adapt to change. Given her eldest child has just turned 13, and Tara attempted to teach Gemma and her friends the moves to Tragedy at her 13th birthday party, you can guess where Tara is in the embarrassing parent, not cool stakes.the book had some funny parts where I really did laugh out loud and could relate as a middle aged mom of a teen, but did not offer the escape I needed. I also got such a nostalgic feeling while reading it, with all the 90s music references (I am also a survivor of the over concealed lips era) and who doesn’t love a Friday night on the settee with your husband in front of gogglebox? Though I wanted to punch Gemma at times, the way she treated her mom went beyond teen stuff at times. Overall, this is one of those novels where you want to keep reading, it makes you smile, laugh, and reminisce about the good ol’ times. Serena currently has over one million followers online; 850K on TikTok, 188K on Instagram, 400K on Facebook, and this is growing.

It was a talk mainly about resilience, mental health and online trolls, but it quickly turned into off-the-cuff banter. From her viral Tik Toks, to her books Serena Terry aka Mammy Banter tells us her real life mummyhood stories in a hilarious fashion.Loved how there are a few chapters of her next book at the end and i can not wait to read that when its out! It is the ordinariness of her life — homework, school runs, meal times and fussy eaters — which she managed to capture in her videos in a way that people all over the world found relatable. During that period, Terry describes grieving over the loss of her 38-year-old twin brothers, Patrick and Daniel, months earlier.

I laughed out loud at some of the antics and the things that Tara’s oldest would come out with and her oldest boy was hilarious. I felt like the worst mummy ever because the wee one [Alfie, aged five] wasn't taking me on in any of the teaching. Mammy Banter TikTok star Serena Terry on new book deal and the 'mental therapy' of comedy Serena Terry, the canny Derry mother behind TikTok hit Mammy Banter, is using her comedy wisely. I don't think it's something I'd read again but I did get a couple laughs and some heartfelt moments from this book.Having seen family and friends go through some tough stuff with their kids I can relate to Tara from and outsider perspective. Family life is made up of little calamities and it is that old thing – if you didn't laugh, you'd cry," says the mum-of-two who, thanks to validation from half-a-million followers on the online video sharing site, is now fleshing out her Mammy Banter character in a new book. I’m already looking forward to the next installment, and I think this would work really well as a tv series.
