What can I say? Sometimes I just want a book that is an easy read and is a quick attention grabber.  I really enjoy Emily Giffin’s books.  This is the third one of her’s that I have read, and so far I really like it! I mean, it doesn’t have anything on Something Borrowed or Something Blue, but I still like it. I started this book the other day and would have finished it by now if a little thing I like to call the real world hadn’t gotten in my way.  I’m pretty sure that I’ll have it finished by tonight, though (I’m a fast reader).

For those of you who are considering diving into this easy read, here’s a nice little overview courtesy of Barnes and Noble

A novel that explores the question: Is there ever a deal-breaker when it comes to true love?  Claudia Parr has everything going for her. A successful editor at a publishing house in Manhattan, she’s also a devoted sister, aunt, and friend. Yet she’s never wanted to become a mother—which she discovers is a major hurdle to marriage, something she desperately wants. Then she meets her soul mate Ben who, miraculously, feels the same way about parenthood. The two fall in love and marry, committed to one another and their life of adventure and discovery. All’s well until one of them has a change of heart. Someone wants a baby after all.  This is the witty, heartfelt story about what happens to the perfect couple when they suddenly want different things and there is no compromise. It’s about deciding what is most important in life and wagering everything to get it. And most of all, it’s about the things we will—and won’t—do for love.
