    My sister has never been a reader, but expressed interest in audiobooks now that she has a house cleaning gig. I’ve been trying to encourage her to read for over a decade, so I’d like to really nail the first recommendation.

    She’s really into the Real Housewives and Kardashians which are not an area of expertise for me. Does anyone have any recommendations for fictional read-alikes revolving around the social elite navigating relationships, causing drama, and spending money on extravagant parties? Shooting for modern and somewhat easy listening. Think Big Little Lies rather than The Great Gatsby, if that makes sense.
