Mean Moms by Emma Rosenblum
mysterious
fast-paced
3.0
A group of wealthy NYC mothers, who have children that attend the best school money can buy, notice a new mom, Sofia, at school when she makes quite the entrance. Naturally, these moms buy their popularity and one of the things they are known for is throwing elaborate themed parties.
This book certainly has their cliques, pta scandals, affairs, and basically whatever else you can think of that comes out of being a mother to school aged children. There's lots of upstaging each other. Think crazy rich people with all the drama they bring. It's like a snippet out of a Real Housewives show, but not as crazy. There's even a modern day Bridgerton style party, minus the dancing. The multiple povs in this book get a little confusing, but I get why we needed to hear from everyone. I was honestly expecting more “mean” in this book, if that makes sense. Maybe I'm just comparing it to my own personal interactions with mean moms, especially over the last year or so, but I just expected more. It wasn't bad though.
January LaVoy did a great job narrating this book! I've been lucky enough to have listened to her before, and I can't wait to again.
A big thank you to Macmillan Audio for an advanced copy of this audiobook. Opinions are my own.
THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU IF: You're a fan of satire, like other people's drama, and a little bit of mystery.
