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.

It's not so much a book, more a collection of stories which, in themselves, aren't hugely interesting. What does come across well though is AM's personality; despite having worked in the Whitehouse for one of the most important people in history, she is a normal down-to-earth human being. I would count myself lucky if she were my friend!
