Publisher's Summary

From the New York Times best-selling author of Who Thought This Was a Good Idea? comes a fun, frank audiobook of reflections, essays and interviews on topics ranging from politics and career to motherhood, sisterhood and making and sustaining relationships of all kinds in the age of social media.

Alyssa Mastromonaco is back with a bold, no-nonsense and no-holds-barred 21st-century girl's guide to life, tackling the highs and lows of bodies, politics, relationships, parents, education, life on the internet and pop culture. Whether discussing Barbra Streisand or The Bachelor, working in the West Wing or working on finding a wing woman, Alyssa leaves no stone unturned...and no awkward situation unexamined.

Like her best seller Who Thought This Was a Good Idea?, So Here's the Thing brings a sharp eye and outsize sense of humor to the myriad issues facing women the world over, both in and out of the workplace. Along with Alyssa's personal experiences and hard-won life lessons, interviews with women like Monica Lewinsky, Susan Rice and Chelsea Handler round out this modern woman's guide to, well, just about everything you can think of.

A sound follow up

Look I didn't think the story was as great as the first one, but i'm glad there was more because i really really enjoyed her first book. She has a great narration style and I loved hearing her candid stories on her Obama years, IBS and periods and not having jackets on motorbikes in freezing cold Japan, its like listening to an old friend only a REALLY interesting one who has lived a life a billion times cooler than most of your actual friends. haha.

A easy one, not great on the substance but good for your soul.

Just to let you know, I work for Audible, but the views expressed in this review are 100% my own.

excellent followup

effortless to listen to. just wish it were longer! I think the first book is more informative, particularly of White House stuff, but this seems more personal.
