Critic reviews

Praise for When's Happy Hour?

“With their new book, the Betches have embraced two of my favorite things: feminism and getting shit done. Their advice for succeeding in your career is profane and practical, high on straight-talk and low on bullshit. From one betch to another—highly recommended.”

(Sarah Knight, New York Times bestselling author of Get Your Sh*t Together)

"If you've ever found yourself crying in a bathroom stall at your corporate job, or wondering who the magical unicorns are that actually know what the F they want to do with their lives, this book is for you.

The Betches will teach you how to confidently ask for a promotion, decode email lingo, and realize why it's imperative that you do not get blasted at a company party and accidentally hook up with the IT guy. Pour a skinny marg, dive in, and get ready to be the #BossBetch you've always dreamed of being."

“You can't stop these Betches! When’s Happy Hour? delivers a strong dose of humor while also sharing real world insight on how to thrive professionally. The perfect mix of LOL meme worthy moments and profound truths makes for a must read for any lady grinding it out.”

(Jaclyn Johnson, CEO & Founder of Create & Cultivate and Author of WorkParty)

The consistent encouragement for women to be great. Not a bad book for women right out of college.

As an older women in the workforce, this book gave me some reminders of the basic needs in my field. However, I couldn't fully relate to some of the suggestions given.

Must read for millennials

I read some of the reviews saying this is basic, didn’t learn anything blah blah blah. Yes it may be basic but it was well written and narrated. Unfortunately a lot of younger adults do not know most of the info in here and i believe will be really helpful for that next generation. The amount of young adults i interview who don’t know anything is disheartening and i hope this book helps them. Love the betches and this book hope the next one will be more depth about their business and social media skills and how we can apply or to our business.

Great book, needs a different reader

Love the Betches books. I’ve been a fan of their pod casts, books, store etc.

I was V excited to get them on audio book for my road trip.

However, the reader sounds like your uptight spinster aunt who wants to hang with the “cool kids” reading it to you. Couldn’t finish listening due to being annoyed by her emphasis/fluctuations on the one liners and matter of fact tone.

Betches, I love you all so much but please re-record with someone who has a personality and encompasses the Betches brand.

xoxo

Just skip this

Didn't finish.
inundated with "probs" and "like". not even passably funny. Skip it!! "Like it's really bad" "Probs should have passed!"

only for people who have no idea how to function

This book is for people who are completely lost. Any person who's ever had a corporate job will know everything in here. The lady speaking is irritating and says "o-m-g" and "t-f" instead of actually saying what they mean. I'm the demographic for this book, but it just makes me sad for our society. I wasted a credit on this, do yourself a favor and don't get it.
