Join Cara Carmichael and her riotous crew as they trade school runs and domestic dramas for a long weekend in Ibiza. Touted as “Mums on Tour,” the trip promises ditching kids, partners and better judgement for sun, sea—and the kind of hangovers that come with questionable decisions and support pants. Sophie McCartney’s debut novel blends laugh-out-loud moments with surprising emotional depth, making this book collection entry both a guilty pleasure and an honest look at adult friendship.

What you’ll find inside

Mother Hens follows Cara as she tries to escape a messy divorce, a fame-hungry sister and a Pina-Colada obsessed mother. The plot unfolds across lazy days and chaotic nights where the party island’s mantra—rules are meant to be broken—meets the reality that past mistakes can follow you even into paradise. This paperback-style storytelling in a deluxe Hardcover gives the narrative a keepsake feel great for gifting.
