About this listen

Fresh out of rehab and running from scandal, Jaycee Grayson didn’t come to play. A disgraced kids’ entertainment exec with no filter and nothing to lose, she’s landed in Littleburgh, Wisconsin—home to a beloved doll empire weaving a toxic fairytale at the behest of a pair of two-faced Prairie Karens running the show.

As she unravels the billion-dollar secret lurking behind a lineup of plastic smiles, Jaycee rallies a band of desperate misfits: outcasts, dreamers, and the quietly unhinged. But torching a global legend might cost her something finally within reach—the home, family, and true purpose she never had.

With stiletto-sharp sarcasm and a story full of surprises, satire, heartbreak, and hope, Horrible Women, Wonderful Girls is perfect for fans of Kristin Hannah’s Firefly Lane, Sirens on Netflix, and anyone who cheers for complicated women quietly breaking all the rules—while rewriting the whole story out loud.

Narrated by Nadia Marshall (Nicole Demara in Zenless Zone Zero), whose uncanny range—dialects, characters, villains, airheads, famous dead people, friendly backstabbers, village idiots, and triangulated lovers—animates a heartfelt, hilarious, and dysfunctional conference call in the heart of Middle America’s most passive-aggressive zip code.

Critic Reviews

"Addiction, reinvention, and the chaos of toxic workplaces — all wrapped in biting wit and unpredictable turns... Sipos’s prose crackles with energy, packing more into a single sentence than some manage on an entire page." — BookLife at Publishers Weekly
