Still in a downward spiral, her friends try their best to fear her up for the mother of all hen dos. I am a follower of Sophie and was so looking forward to this book, who doesn't love a crazy hen story? I liken it to going to watch Dirty Dancing the musical and your brain takes a while to readjust to it not being exactly like the movie. The book took me a while to get on board as I could not stop thinking that Cara is not Sophie and Cara husband Dom in the book is not Steve her husband. Her ensuing journey to Ibiza, pushed by her friends into a hen party while nursing a broken heart, is a masterclass in comedic chaos.

This was an easy summer read, I think I would enjoyed it more had I been reading on a hot beach rather than a wet gloomy North West town! The story follows Cara, who is recently divorced from her love rat husband, and has been persuaded to join best friends Jac, Debs, and her cousin Amy on Jac’s hen do to Ibiza. I was loving this book when it was based on 4 mums enjoying a hen party in Ibiza and getting themselves into a whole host of hilarious situations. Mums on ditching kids, partners and better judgement for a long-weekend of sun, sea, and sex…y support pants.

The story is chaotic and very busy, I do feel as though Sophie crammed in as many jokes/90's references as she could in pretty much every other sentence.

A great light hearted, entertaining read that would pull you out of any slump and brighten your mood instantly. I immediately detested Dom (the weasel) and Cara’s mother is a piece of work too (don’t get me started about Cara’s younger stepsister CA chaotic story that pulls at all the emotions, Sophie’s Mother Hens is the Mums on Tour version of the Inbetweeners.Four friends, three nights in Hedonistic Ibiza ending with an unplanned trip to Las Vegas, what could possibly go wrong? Before turning to writing, Sophie worked in PR and considers promoting the world’s biggest fish finger as her career highlight. Not sure I was fully on board with the plot, a mum version of The Hangover, where the hen do does not ho to plan and they have to fix what happened the morning after the night before. It was also just so relatable, which I think is what made it so funny, because you can relate to the characters and what they’re going through.

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. But of course, absolutely nothing goes to plan and the foursome get themselves into many sticky situations. I follow Sophie on Instagram, find her entertaining and realistic so was intrigued to read her first piece of fiction. I loved the characters in the book and lots of it really gave me the same vibe as the movie 'Bridesmaids'. All in all I would recommend as a fun summer beach read, if you want a book packed with surprises and laugh out loud one liners!

So what started out fun and believable quickly turned into a crazy caper that just felt very over the top. Sophie’s first fiction title has a lot going on- cheating husbands, running from a cult, drug dealers, a murder… but somehow Sophie brings it all together with her characteristic witty and zany sense of humour. Absolutely fantastic and hilariously funny had me laughing all the way through and loved all the adventures of the mum's.

Before turning to comedy, Sophie worked in PR and considers promoting the world's biggest fish finger as a career highlight. No longer fun and lighthearted it turns into an action story and there are very strange and tedious links to characters met earlier.They fly into Ibiza and soon arrive at Unicorn Utopia (yup), their sacred spiritual sanctuary in the middle of nowhere.
