Moms Like Us was a fun, light beach read. I loved the characters and their interesting backstories, as well as the shenanigans they get up to. I found the plot to be engaging and I wanted to keep reading to find out what would happen next. I think anyone who liked Big Little Lies will like this book.

A nice beach read if you like rich people problems; I found this amusing and actually laughed out loud at times. Don’t expect a mystery book though!

I love books about moms and their offspring and the stress of getting into schools. These moms were pretty bad and had a lot of secrets. There is a murder too which amps up the story. I did like that it was about four different women and told from all their point of views. There were laugh out loud moments scattered throughout the book too. If you like rich people problems, mom problems, murder, kids and laughing you will like this book. I give it a 3.5.

I had high hopes for this book. It opens with a murder but it’s unclear who is dead and who is/are the murderer/s. The story then goes back in time to follow four moms of students at a progressive private school outside of LA. I liked the multiple POV format. I also appreciated the stresses associated with trying to move into selective middle schools. My major problem was that none of the characters were likable. All but one of them had secrets that centered around their promiscuity. I cannot recommend this one but I thank NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this ARC.
