Summary: I loved this book!!!!
Comment: I really dont know what you people are talking about when you say this is a poorly written book. I loved it so much, and I couldn't put it down. THe stuggles that the couples went through to get pregant were very encouraging to the people that really do have infertility problems. I loved it and i recmomend it to anyone.

Summary: the worst book I 've ever read
Comment: This is a really bad book.
Everything is blown out of proportion the characters are hysterical self-centered individuals who are either very bad or very good (according to the authors standards).
There is the guy who had asthma and nobody wanted to foster and he marries this bad bad girl who does not want to have family and children dumps him and then before finding the next perfect girl goes around thinking along the lines that he is sterile and he doesn't deserve to be married. Not even soap operas go that far...
As for the others, there is the drama of an ex neglected child now lawyer who decides to have a baby while her husband is over 60 (now the fact that when the kid will be twenty the guy will be definitely over eighty and probably dead is not of major concern to anybody). An interesting part is when the gal has a miscarriage and the doctor mentions something about "dead tissue" in which case she screams saying: "This is not dead tissue this is our baby" or something like that.
And last but not least we see the other couple who the woman gets completely bonkers because she hasn't got pregnant after twelve moths drives everybody crazy and finally adopts a baby whose parents miraculously look like herself and her husband and then gets pregnant herself. Of course coming from a family with two sisters baby breeding machines the hysteria is hardly surprising but things like the sister fight in Thanksgiving not only doesn't look as a hooligan fight (I presume the author has never attended any...) but is rather hilarious especially the dialogue.
So the message is: get marry early and breed early. Stay home produce as many babies as possible be as hysterical and egocentric as you can and live happily ever after.
As for the language it looks more like a 10 year old's essay rather than a novel.
This was the first and last book I will ever read from the author but I would expect a best selling author to do better than that.
