This book, as Gelman's first book of this series, Class Mom never failed to make me laugh. I loved once again how it was set in Kansas City (close to where I'm from) and the shout out to my favorite vegan bakery. I love this series because it makes me forget about the real world for awhile.

Brilliant follow up to class mom. I enjoyed every minute of it. As a Kansas City native, Jen Dixion gives props to my city.

This was overall a very enjoyable read. I absolutely love this author’s first book, Class Mom, and enjoyed catching up with the characters. This book had me laughing out loud at several points and flipping back pages to read portions to my boyfriend. Overall I enjoyed Class Mom a little better because the plot of this edition made me wanting a bit more, however I will definitely be recommending this title to many of my friends and family once it comes out this summer!

Thank you NetGalley for the advanced digital copy.

Well, I am a little sad - I thoroughly enjoyed this author’s 1stbook but this one leaves a bit to be desired. It was engaging enough that I did finish it, so no - it’s not a BAD book.... just a bit tedious? I felt her humor was grossly underayed & should have definitely held more prominence: she’s funny! There were quite a few instances of the writing that just seemed forced, kind of like space filler.
Overall, it’s a fine book. Doubt it’s gonna change a life but an ok read.

I adored "Class Mom," and I so wanted to love this follow-up. Sadly, it fell a little short for me. There were a few laugh-out-loud moments, but overall it lacked the humor and relatability of the first book. I agree with another reviewer who said that if you haven't read "Class Mom" you will be totally lost; I had to go back and remind myself of a few of the characters and their relationships with Jen. I also felt like a few plot lines were rushes or didn't really have a satisfying resolution. It was a quick, fun read, but it didn't meet my expectations.

Loved this sequel as much as the first! Plenty of laugh out loud moments and it was great to return to a group of characters to see what they were up to. I hope Laurie Gelman considers a third book!
Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for an advanced copy.

Thank you to NetGalley, Henry Holt and Co, and especially Laurie Gelman for the advanced e-copy of this book. I devoured it in three days. I could not put it down. As a teacher and as a mother I could relate to everything in here. Her class emails are laugh out loud funny and the situations she gets herself into kept me turning the pages as fast as I could. I love Gelman's writing style and her characters are so totally people we know in our own lives. I've always been a huge Sophie Kinsella fan but Gelman is rising to the top. Please, please, please get volun-told for another year as class mom. I can't wait to see what happens to everyone.

I am so happy I was selected to read this ARC in exchange for my honest review. I am not the laugh out loud kind of person while reading or watching TV. This book changed all of that. This was cleverly written and such a great light read. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, although I have not read Class Mom, I will now be adding it to my TBR list. This book is a must read for any mother of a school aged child. LOVED IT!

While I am not a mom myself, I absolutely LOVED Class Mom and was so excited to read You've Been Volunteered. The sequel absolutely does not disappoint. I definitely recommend reading Class Mom first, but it is not essential. Jen is the class mom yet again, and her emails will have you laughing out loud. Her family life gets a little more serious in this round, which is another reason to absolutely read this book.

Laurie Gelman is hilarious and I expected nothing less in her second book. Loved Class Mom and her newest book is equally entertaining. Many laugh out loud moments being that I have children the same age as those in the book!

This was a great book! Very fast read that held my attention throughout the entire book. It was very enjoyable. The characters were likeable and VERY relatable. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

A follow up to Class Mom, Laurie Gelman does not disappoint. I do not have children myself, but found myself wondering if the PTA is truly like this. This is well written and witty.

While this is a sequel, it can be read as a stand-alone. I highly recommend reading Class Mom too!

I really enjoyed this book. I have not read Gelman's first book yet but this makes me eager to! While there were references to the plot in Class Mom, I feel like there's a bit I missed out on, though I still believe this is a stand alone book. Entertaining for sure - I loved Jen's emails to the class.

Jen Dixon is back!! This is the second Class Mom novel and I loved it! If you haven’t read Class Mom, go read it now! If you’re local, you can borrow mine!! Jen Dixon is back to her class mom duties and her son is in third grade now. This time around Jen’s mother just beat breast cancer, one daughter moved home while the other is touring Europe with a band, her best friend moved away, and her husband is trying to expand his business. On top of all that, she gets volunteered to lead the new student safety patrol. Jen tackles it all with sarcasm and humor. Her emails to the parents of William H. Taft Elementary School are exactly what every PTA committee chair and room mom are thinking but are too afraid to write. I loved the relationship between Jen and Max’s teacher who she affectionately refers to as Razzi. As a mom of two elementary school kids and an elementary school teacher, I was laughing the whole way through the book. Again, Laurie Gelman nails what it’s like to be a mom in 2019! This book is funny and relatable and I highly recommend it!! **Thank you to NetGalley. I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.**

My gratitude goes to Netgalley and Henry Holt & Company for an early e-copy of this title. I laughed so hard the tears were streaming down my face. And it’s fairly hard to pierce my wry sense of humor but Gelman manages, every time. Where was she when I was a PTA president?

This is the second in the Class Mom series – I hope there’s lots more to come. Jen Dixon took a break, but now she’s once again become the class mom for Max’s third grade class. Her signature – her hilarious and snarky emails to the rest of the parents in Max’s class. And she took a foray into helping out with safety patrol, which mostly didn’t go well.

I don’t recommend you read this while drinking coffee or you may sort some up your nose, but please do read it. The book is light and refreshing like an ice-cold coke with a squirt of lime. And so satisfying.

Jen is back and just as snarky and funny as ever! Loved this sequel. Keeps you laughing while still dealing with some heavy situations at times. Having done the PTA thing I could relate. Great job, Laurie Gelman!
Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC!

Second installment in the Class Mom series — this time Max has made it to 3rd grade and Jen has been dragged back into Class Mom-hood after a well-deserved one year break. Every bit as laugh-out-loud funny as the first book, in this installment Jen takes on a new PTA president, some surprises from her two thought-to-be-fully-launched daughters, and a couple of possible swingers — all with the aid of her cancer-boob embellished punching bag in the basement.

Snarky, clever, and hysterical, this is a light, fun, romp through housewifedom and motherhood that will keep you laughing for days (and possibly change your perspective of Kansas City altogether).

Jen is back! I really enjoyed Class Mom so I was excited to see a sequel. I like how relatable Jen is and the situations she often finds herself in, but I do find some of the other school moms a bit cliched,
Also, not a huge fan of the way everything worked out so perfectly - a huge, unexpected gift that takes care of a major work concern! homeless guy’s problems solved! bitchy school moms become friends! Please. Only in book world.
Overall, it was enjoyable and cute, but lacking a little of the sass that was Class Mom.

This sequel to Class Mom did not disappoint. I found it easy to read and entertaining. Jen Dixon’s experiences are relatable to anyone who has had a child in elementary school. I love how she incorporates life with adult children and aging parents too.

This book was very funny to read, just like the first one! I love Jen’s sense of humor and her plights while trying to balance being a room mom and all the various things going on in her family. Jen seems like the kind of character I would want to hang out with.
This book could be read as a stand alone, however I recommend reading the first book, because it’s fun. I love the mix of the emails she sent and how they were dispersed throughout the story. I hope there will be more books about Jen’s exploits!
