sMothering — Wendy French

What are you doing here?

Claire McLeod's peaceful, if dull, existence is shattered by her mother's unexpected--and unwelcome--visit. Armed with a sharp tongue, a critical eye, and enough Weekender Wear to make anyone nervous, Mom has invited herself for an extended stay. While it's nice having her laundry done and her linoleum scrubbed with a toothbrush, Claire could do without the constant digs at her appearance, her apartment, her faltering career path, and her single status.

Claire must figure out how to handle her tyrannical mother while trying to climb a shaky corporate ladder, stalk a cute coworker, reinvent herself, and maybe--just maybe--find a little happiness.

Tender and insightful--and always hilariously funny--sMothering is a novel you won't be able to put down.
