Onkaparinga Libraries’ next online author talk features food blogger Tori Haschka on Friday 30 April at 12noon.

With three successful nonfiction books on food and nutrition under her belt, this year Tori has released her first novel - Grace Under Pressure.

Grace Harkness looks like she has it all - two beautiful children, four cookbooks under her belt and an idyllic beachside home, #blessed.

But add another baby on the way (oops), a spouse who is nowhere to be seen and a relentless list of things she ‘should’ be doing and Grace is starting to unravel.

When the madness of modern-day motherhood finally pushes her to the brink, Grace and her friends decide to ditch the men in their lives, move in together and create a ’mummune’™, sharing the load of chores, school pick-ups/drop-offs and endless Life Admin. 

The new set-up seems like a dream, but is life in this utopian village all it’s cracked up to be?

Tori’s novel has been described as a deliciously hilarious, honest and heartfelt portrayal of modern-day motherhood and the saving grace of female friendship.
