Karen Rizzo wraps a timeless drama about the love between mothers and daughters in a fresh, snappy package for the social media age." --CHRISTINA SCHWARZ, author of The Edge of the Earth and Drowning Ruth, an Oprah's Book Club Selection Before there were Real Housewives and Tiger Moms, the was Ruth Sternberg, the hugely popular First Mother of Mommy Blogging--or, as Ruth's daughter, Abbie prefers to call her, the First Lady of Cyber Exploitation. Eighteen year-old Abbie has finally found her way out of the limelight, by moving a solid five hundred miles away from Ruth and her "maternal instincts." But when she hears that her ailing, beloved grandmother is moving in with Ruth, she suspects that her mother has found a new blog subject to exploit. Abbie kidnaps Grandma to save her from the same fate, and thus begins an uproarious battle of wills. Famous Baby wisely and hilariously explores mother love, identity, and the hazards of parental over-sharing in the social media age.
