Nicole Hackett with Susan Coll: MOM BRAIN

Join us at the Ivy for the launch of Nicole Hackett's novel MOM BRAIN, featuring the author in conversation with novelist Susan Coll!

Welcome to The Program, an immersive week-long experience set to the backdrop of the breathtaking island of O'ahu, where mothers in all stages of crisis can come to take control of their lives. It's not exactly the type of thing Georgia Evans--a busy working mother of two--would usually consider. However, still spiraling from a debacle that crowned her "internet's worst mom," she is desperate enough to try anything.

What's in store? A story that turns a discerning eye toward society's view on modern motherhood and reframes "mom brain" as a superpower.

Order MOM BRAIN here!
