I rented this with a few misgivings after reading the review in Audio File. Unfortunately, Audio File was too kind. The book is totally predictable and an example of the chic lit genre at its worst. It is memorable however for Cynthia Nixon's excellent narration. She manages several voices with ease and yet she does not seem to be jumping up and down yelling 'look at me, I'm doing different voices' which some readers can do.
This isn't the best Emily Giffin book out there (Something Borrowed and Something Blue are much better), but it's still an enjoyable read. This will strike a chord with all professional women out there that are apprehensive about the idea of having a baby. I had so much anxiety while reading this book that I had to flip to the end to see what happens (trust me, I never do this). But overall a good book, but didn't find the same connection with the characters as her other books.
