I'm Not Mad (anymore)

I’m Not Mad (Anymore) by Bron Lewis is a fiercely funny Australian memoir that unpacks motherhood, mental health and the kind of female rage that rarely gets named, let alone laughed about.

Drawing on her life in comedy and at home, Lewis writes with sharp timing and real emotional heft as she tracks the moments that tip women from coping to cracking: the chaos of new babies, the pressure to be “fine”, and the family legacy of watching mums weather menopause, mood swings and everything in between. It’s honest about postnatal depression and anxiety without ever turning into a lecture, and it’s generous in the way it makes room for messiness.

Perfect for readers who love feminist humour, confessional nonfiction, and stories that feel like a voice note from your funniest friend (with better punchlines).

Add it to your basket when you want a cathartic, laugh-out-loud read that still goes somewhere meaningful.
