Publisher's summary
For fans of Sophie Kinsella and Kevin Kwan comes a laugh-out-loud debut that takes listeners inside the cutthroat world of mommy blogging.
Ruthie St. James - formerly a political communications strategist, currently a stay-at-home mom, and all of a sudden friendless after her daughter’s peanut butter cookie sends another toddler to the hospital - needs a break. And when she wins an all-expenses paid cruise vacation with her idol, the superstar mommy blogger Jesca Pine, she can’t wait to connect with other moms IRL.
But the cruise is not the Instagram-worthy getaway Ruthie had in mind: Firstly, the other bloggers aren’t here to make friends - they’re here to impress a major talent agent who’s been spotted on the ship, and they’ll do just about anything to get her attention. On top of that, someone aboard keeps leaking scandalous (and off-brand) stories to an unforgiving gossip site, and Jesca’s losing her followers as quickly as her sanity.
All this leaves Ruthie walking on eggshells, and after a scandal of her own, she has only one more chance to salvage her vacation: using her political savvy to negotiate with the team of ruthless saboteurs behind Jesca Pine’s demise...Jesca’s own teenage daughters.
Hello Lovelies! is a joyous, irreverent debut about friendship, motherhood, and what it takes to survive and thrive in today’s digital world.
"As a former mommy blogger, I couldn’t stop laughing at the misadventures of poor Ruthie St. James as she finds herself on a cruise with a group of die-hard blogging moms. This is a great cautionary tale of ‘be careful what you wish for.’" (Laurie Gelman, author of Class Mom)

Story
Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction." She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income. In I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail.

Story
Sasha has had it. She cannot bring herself to respond to another inane, “urgent” email or participate in the corporate employee joyfulness program. She hasn’t seen her friends in months. Sex? Seems like a lot of effort. Even cooking dinner takes far too much planning. Sasha has hit a wall. Armed with good intentions to drink kale smoothies, try yoga, and find peace, she heads to the seaside resort she loved as a child. But it’s the off season, the hotel is in a dilapidated shambles, and she has to share the beach with the only other occupant: a grumpy guy named Finn.

Nora Stephens' life is books—she’s read them all—and she is not that type of heroine. Not the plucky one, not the laidback dream girl, and especially not the sweetheart. In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby. Which is why she agrees to go to Sunshine Falls, North Carolina, for the month of August when Libby begs her for a sisters’ trip away.

Mean Girls in the mommy blogosphere
"A fellow editor recommended Hello Lovelies! when I mentioned I was in need of a pre-vacation listen. While the main character's thematic mommy blogger
cruise sounded much more stressful than I'm hoping my upcoming Amalfi coast adventure will be, I still found myself enjoying the ride. It captures its world through the same satirical-yet-empathetic lens that made Big Little Lies and Crazy Rich Asians so appealing—a tone that's just sincere enough to keep you invested and perfectly captured in narrator Emily Bauer's performance. At its heart is a focus on the challenges of finding new friendships and feeling a sense of belonging, particularly as an adult, that you don't have to be a mom or a blogger to find deeply relatable." —Lavina K., Audible Editor

Fun & Witty Read!
This was a such fun! This has an interesting take on modern mothering, friendship & how social media impacts us all. Highly recommended.

Main character is not likable
I found the main character, Ruthie, to be annoying and just unlikable. I was actively rooting against her. I really hope there aren’t people like Ruthie in the real world. The ending of the story was ridiculous and didn’t tie up some big loose ends.

This book is amazeballs!
I loved this book. The story was great from start to finish. It was so relatable even though I missed the whole Mommy blogging following popularity years ago.

Meh
I really liked the premise of this book, though I do think there is a similar story out there about a blogger winning a prize and the insane shenanigans that ensue as her whole “real life” comes to light. Anyway, this was well produced and the narration is great, but as others mentioned, the story was kind of hollow. The entire plot about our protagonist cheating was completely glossed over and made me pretty uncomfortable. There is not much that makes me understand why someone so miserable in motherhood is writing a mommy blog anyway. I also expected to learn the true identity of Spy Felicia and we did not. That seemed like a miss. It’s not the worst, but it’s not the best either.

Loving this mix of humor, mom life realness and internet snark. Have found myself chuckling along at multiple moments.

“Your heart is a moron”
This audiobook is a fantastic representation of Shine Theory in motherhood. I laughed, I cried, I cringed. A fun read if you aren’t a mom, and if you are it’s like a mirror for your soul. The narrator does a great job with the voices and sound effects, too! Very engaging.

I expected more
The narrator's inability to say Jessica instead of Jessca made this book a struggle to finish, especially since Jessica is a prominent character in the story.

What a fun audiobook!
What a funny, and delightful look at the cutthroat world of mommy bloggers and influencers. I really believe crazy things like those in this story happen IRL all the time. The audiobook was the perfect length, with a fantastic performance by the narrator. She really sold the story, mood, characters and her use of words like “amazeballs” felt like such a natural fit to the whole thing. Would recommend to anyone interested in gossipy stories about web savvy, entrepreneurial women.
