Christina Applegate slays in this unfiltered comedy about a fed-up mom having an epic existential meltdown after the vacation from hell

When Kate wins an item at her children’s elementary school auction - an all-inclusive trip to SeaView at Sandpiper Bay - she thinks it’s just what her family needs after a decade of career disappointments and a marriage on its last legs. She has no reason to believe that said trip is a Fyre Festival-level fraud and, in fact, the catalyst to her unraveling. But it is. Oh, but it is.

Upon her return home, Kate, a failed writer, sets out to publish the world’s most anthemic one-star Yelp review of SeaView at Sandpiper Bay, detailing her week from hell on its brackish waters. And it will be her masterpiece.

At first, it feels good to let her white-knuckled fingers fly ragefully across the keys. But after a while, Kate wonders: Is her Yelp review like the vacation itself, an ill-advised Band-Aid on problems she doesn’t know how to fix?

Yes, the story may be a little out there, but it was a fun listen while I cleaned the house. Christina Applegate was the perfect narrator and brought the main character to life.

Easy and fun listen

Probably not politically correct, but I was shocked to see that a man wrote this from the perspective of a woman that was so incredibly relatable - I mean, especially the way she swears and struggles with, well, life as we know it. I'm not sure if I'm depressed or encouraged after listening, but I'm certainly entertained!

wait, what?

Is the main character a little out there? Yes. But the performance of her was perfect. A great "while I'm cleaning the house" listen.

Christina Applegate is the only reason I finished this book. The main character is awful. An easy listen though.

Meh
