Every woman should have reading this book on their to-do list.

Meet Celia Stone, the ultimate hyper-organised, journal-obsessed thirty-something with a life that is perfectly planned out and running like clockwork. From her promising writing career to her devoted partner and rigorous fitness routine, Celia has it all - and she's right on track with her early retirement plan. But when her husband suggests it's time to start a family, Celia begins to question whether a new addition might just throw off-course everything she's worked so hard to achieve.

Follow Celia's diary entries on a year-long journey of self-discovery as she navigates the ups and downs of trying to have it all.

The Disorganisation of Celia Stone by Emma Young is a must-read for anyone looking to explore the delicate balance between personal aspirations and family life.
