What if you said the worst thing a mother could say?

What if your husband found out about it in the national press? And what if after all that, you didn’t regret it…?

‘My life is a tight knot I would like to undo. And, yes, there’s no use crying over spilt milk but, the truth is, I’d rather die than spill any more…’

Bea has a husband and daughter. Bea also has an appointment for a termination. Her first child changed everything – her life, her relationship, her identity. Now she has a pregnancy test and a decision to face.

This is a story about the women we (think we) know, the choices we make, the friends who stand by us and how the secrets we keep and the words left unsaid can be more dangerous than any lie we tell…

Reviews for Spilt Milk

PRAISE FOR AMY’S PREVIOUS WRITING 'Perfect crossover… Its themes are dark, but its characters are bold and engaging' - Heat ‘Realistic… thought-provoking' - Financial Times 'A powerful page-turner with giant heart. A book that everyone needs to read. Izzy is my hero, and her voice deserves to be heard around the world. Stunning.' - Jennifer Niven, New York Times bestselling author of All the Bright Places and Holding Up the Universe ‘Amy Beashel holds nothing back when confronting rape culture and toxicity; this beautiful book will floor you and deserves to be on every shelf, everywhere.' - Kathleen Glasgow, New York Times bestselling author of Girl in Pieces and How to Make Friends With the Dark 'Beashel joins feminist writers like Louise O'Neill and Holly Bourne in portraying rape culture rather than simply focusing on an isolated incident or single monstrous individual, encouraging girls to speak up and shout out about their own experiences and the problems … genuinely inspiring and powerful.' - Irish Times 'Readers will be shocked, angry, and, hopefully, empowered by the novel's message.' - Booklist 'The Sky is Mine is an exceptionally powerful and emotional read, exploring the themes of abuse and control in a realistic and thought-provoking way. I couldn't put it down.' - Eve Ainsworth, author of Because of You and Tender ‘Absolutely beautiful…a compelling book…I will read everything Amy writes from here on out because she is just an absolutely brilliant writer.' - Jennifer Niven, author of All the Bright Places
