Another funny and pleasant installment in the Class Mom series. If you need a break from all the serious books you've been working your way through, you can't go wrong with picking up this.
This book made me laugh out loud on multiple occasions. I love the humor and the storyline throughout Gelman’s book series. It has been years since I read the previous two books, but she takes you right back into Jen Dixon’s life. It was a nice break from more serious books. I can’t wait to read the next book!
I loved this whole series. Both in book & audio form, they were lighthearted, laugh-out-loud reads.
Yoga Pant Nation is the third book in the Class Mom/You've Been Volunteered series. Jen Dixon is back as the snarky class mom who has opinions about everyone and anyone. She doesn't care about most things but she certainly loves her family and meddling in other people's business. She is sarcastic and for someone who can relate to the classroom antics - hilarious.
In this book, Jen Dixon is in charge of fundraising. She also is teaching spin classes and both of these things result in plenty of amusing interactions. This is a light, quick read and as long as you aren't easily offended, it is very funny.
For anyone that has ever been in a school, had kids in a school, or volunteered for anything relating to a school, you will certainly relate. This book is the third in the series and you don't have to read the other two, but it certainly helps. Many of the characters are brought back and they aren't really explained unless you remember them from the previous books.

After three books in this series, I'm still left wondering the same thing. When the hell has anyone ever been assigned to bring wine/alcohol to a PTO event? Maybe there are some private schools out there someplace, but never once in all my time teaching OR as a parent has thing happened. It just annoys me every time. Yet I keep reading. Not my favorite of her three in this series.
Jen Dixon, Class Mom is back for her last year at the elementary school. Max is in 5th grade, her daughters are out of the house and she's GG to her 2 year old granddaughter who she watches multiple times a week. Add in her quest to become a spin instructor, her parents are starting to not be able to care for themselves, her appointment as chair of the PTA fundraising committee, and the other grandma trying to win custody and Jen's plate is overflowing. This story of a life will pull you in, make you laugh, and touch your heart.

I won an advanced reader copy of this book in a Goodreads giveaway. It is the third book in a series. I have not read the first two books. This read well as a stand alone. I laughed out loud several times throughout the book. The story wasn't very deep, but it was a nice light read. I enjoyed the story and all of the characters. Solid 4 stars.
