Happy and You Know It

Happy & You Know It

Happy & You Know It by Laura Hankin is juicy and fun and the kind of book where you simply don’t know how it’ll end. Part women’s fiction, part domestic suspense, Happy & You Know It is seriously a good time! I listened to the audiobook (read by the author) and I tell you, she is a DELIGHT. I looked forward to my runs so I could listen to more of this. That’s no joke when it’s 99% humidity these days.

Quick!

Claire lives in New York and is on the struggle bus. She was asked to leave an up-and-coming band that she loved. Her rent is due. And she’ll be damned if she has to leave town to return home to live with her parents. Adulting is for the birds.

She answers an ad for a baby playgroup musician for what she assumes will be a crusty set of white mamas. What she finds is a fun gaggle of ladies who seemingly have it all together, indulge in booze freely and take Claire under their wing as one of their own.

And if there’s anything Claire wants more than a paycheck, it’s to feel like part of a group.

So many secrets

It isn’t long before Claire sees little cracks in the perfect mommy façade these ladies are projecting. Maybe not everyone is as financially comfortable as they act. Maybe not everyone’s marriage is in tact. And what in the hell is in those vitamins they take to make these ladies go-go-go?

Legit

I 100% didn’t know which friendships I was rooting for. I had no idea who the dark horse(s) would be. This book was so damn crafty and I cannot urge you enough to read it! Get Happy!
