About this listen

Welcome to a hen do where revenge is served colder than a frozen margarita…

Cara Carmichael’s bestie is finally getting hitched, and she’s over the moon because it means one thing… Whoah, they’re going to Ibiza! Mums on Tour: ditching kids, partners and better judgement for a long-weekend of sun, sea, and sex…y support pants. What could possibly go ‘Pete Tong’?

Lazy days, crazy nights and child-free hangovers sound like hedonistic heaven – but it turns out you can get into a hell of a lot of trouble on the party island where rules are meant to be broken.

For Cara, it’s a chance to forget about her messy divorce and explosive feud with a stardom-seeking sister and Pina-Colada pickled mother. Swapping emotional baggage for 10kg of hand luggage, she soon realises even on holiday, the darkness of your past has an alarming way of catching up with you.

When a twist of fate causes feathers to fly – a dangerous opportunity for retribution arises. Faced with secrets, lies, and betrayal – does it pay to be a good egg, or do bad chicks reign supreme?

Four friends, three nights, two murders – one heck of an adventure. A rollocking rollercoaster ride from Ibiza to Vegas, via Cheshire, Mother Hens will make you laugh, wince, and wonder what any of us are really capable of when push comes to shove…

It starts off so we’ll and it’s funny, and relatable at the start, even 1/2 way through then it gets totally far fetched. It’s a shame I too wanted to love it as I love Sophie’s content and you could see that at the beginning, but it went so off track for me.
Ironically It’s an easy holiday book.

It started off so well

I loved the storyline & it’s really funny & we’ll written but I had to stop the audiobook & buy the book because I couldn’t listen to screechy voice any longer - if you can read the book instead x

Great story awful narration

Loved every minute of this book. Absolutely brilliant. Just when I thought I had it figured out, a twist, and another. It was funny, relatable, incredibly well written and left me wanting more!

Brilliant!

Really funny book, so far fetched but very funny. Some parts very relatable to the normal woman. Would recommend if looking for something light hearted.
