Description
‘Heart-wrenching, heart-warming and heartfelt' Adam Kay, author of This is Going to Hurt
After her twin girls are born early, Francesca Segal finds herself keeping vigil by their side in hospital, all romantic expectations of new parenthood obliterated. Her gripping diary of those months combines the tenderness of a love poem with the compulsive pace of a thriller. As each day brings a fresh challenge for her and her babies, Francesca makes a temporary life among a band of mothers who are vivid, fearless and inspiring, taking care not only of their children but of one another.
‘A beautiful memoir: wise, moving and profoundly humane’ Elizabeth Day, author of How to Fail

This book must have been so difficult to write. It is such a beautiful piece of writing yet it’s so raw- I found myself emotionally attached to the twins willing them to get well.
It is truly a special book as Francesca and her family are inviting us into this heartfelt journey.
Highly recommended
Thank you to both NetGalley and Random House Uk for my eARC in exchange for my honest unbiased review
