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…

I love Sophie’s humour. She’s relatable and down to earth. This story was fairly far-fetched but really easy to listen to while driving. It was a bit of lighthearted fun and I will look forward to her (hopefully) next story.

Easy listen

Not my normal genre but loved this. An easy listen with surprising twists in a mums on tour holiday! I admittedly didn’t read any blurb - just listened because I follow Sophie online - glad I did! Hoping for more fiction!

Really surprised with where it went

It’s a laugh riot from the beginning, love the plot twist.
I was irritated by the narrator’s voice to begin with but, it’s gets better, just let yourself get absorbed into the story.

LOL Inducing!

Absolutely hilarious, but also poignant. The worst family in the world coupled with your best friends. A disaster at every turn. I was crying with laughter, but could also feel the pain and embarrassment. What do you do when your elderly mother dons sparkly hot-pants for a night on the tiles!

Thirty-somethings calamitous hen-weekend

Not my usual listen, extremely absurd, unrealistic and quite frankly disturbing story line, but I just absolutely loved it! Perhaps not to some peoples tastes but I personally adore Laura Brydon, I think she is an excellent narrator! If you’re on the fence give it a go, it’s so strange it’s genius!

I don’t know why but I just loved it!

Very very funny! Really enjoyed it. Looking forward to the next book (hopefully soon). Recommend

Loved it!

It started off quite promising but become very far fetched and ridiculous very quickly! It was the narrator that really spoilt it for me, her voices for the characters waa grating especially the mother's one! Such a shame as i was looking forward to the book, maybe if I'd not had the audible I would have enjoyed it more?

Story a bit far fetched and narrator just awful!

Really enjoyed the silliness of it all. Bit different, and the narrator did eventually grow on me with the voices! I'd listen to more!

Mad

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.
