Publisher's summary

"Hilarious, suspenseful, and whip smart."
—Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney

"...Jones does an outstanding job of matching the tonal changes in this audiobook."- AudioFile on Let's Not Do That Again

From Grant Ginder, the author of The People We Hate at the Wedding, comes Let's Not Do That Again a poignant, funny, and slyly beguiling novel which proves that, like democracy, family is a messy and fragile thing —perfect for fans of Veep’s biting humor, the family drama of Succession, and the joys of Kevin Wilson’s Nothing to See Here.

Nancy Harrison is running for Senate, and she’s going to win, goddamnit. Not that that’s her slogan, although it could be. She’s said all the right things. Passed all the right legislation. Chapped her lips kissing babies. There’s just one problem: her grown children.

Greta and Nick Harrison are adrift. Nick is floundering in his attempts to write a musical about the life of Joan Didion (called Hello to All That!). And then there’s his little sister Greta. Smart, pretty, and completely unmotivated, allowing her life to pass her by like the shoppers at the Apple store where she works.

One morning the world wakes up not to Nancy making headlines, but her daughter, Greta. She’s in Paris. With extremist protestors. Throwing a bottle of champagne through a beloved bistro’s front window. In order to save her campaign, not to mention her daughter, Nancy and Nick must find Greta before it’s too late.

Not great but could have been

Started out intriguing but ended flat. Also I didn't even bc me close to laughing despite the reviews that it's "hilarious"

I made myself listen to the whole thing. It got interesting in the middle but I wasn’t crazy about it

Not recommend

The writing was great, but the story was hard to care about. Has 1 specific element that puts it in category of When the Crawdads Sing and Fried Green Tomatoes. Tho no where near as entertaining. So don’t read it because I said that!

Slow to start - stay with it!

I almost put this one down - the characters seemed stereotypical and the plot seemed thin - then… Great reader, so I stayed with it. A few major plot twists later, I could not put this down. A very enjoyable read.

Does not get better

Kept waiting for this to get good or to feel anything for the characters. Didn’t happen. Move on and waste your time elsewhere

This Will Affect Your Credit Score and IQ

My IQ is in the trenches and my credit score plummeted while listening to this absolute dumpster fire of a story. Sweet mother of ridiculousness this book reads like it was written by wish dot com AI in a bag of rice. Let’s definitely not do that again.

Boring

Why did I not pass on this book will haunt me for a while. I stuck with it but I stopped caring.

LET’S NOT READ THIS!

Oh my gosh! I have only reviewed a few books. So far, only when a book was so darn good I just had to comment. This is the first time I have been motivated to review a book because it was so flat out horrible! I feel like it had to be a joke?! My wife and I have listened to over 50 books and this is the first time we have not finished a book. We gave it 2 hours. What a waste!
