Minus Nine to One gets ten out of ten...eventually! - Rated
I first read this book whilst in my first trimester and absolutley hated it. I dismissed it as 'celebrity fluff' and banished it back to the bookcase. Thank you raging pregnancy hormones.
However...
I am now in my third trimester and, after a very pleasurable re-read, I now see that this book is an absolute joy. With lots of lovely bits and bobs, from the photos to the text and the (yummy) recipes, there is a lot to keep you going. Informative, touching and very, very funny.
Ten out of ten, thanks Jools!
A very dumbed down version of what I was hoping for - Rated
I bought this book on the strength of the recommendations you can see here on Amazon. Warning though - I guess everyone else was looking for something a little more low brow than I was.
I was *hoping* for a book that was an emotional and real account of a woman's first pregnancy, with in depth feelings and thoughts. It's actually more like a teenagers diary, and if the tone doesn't get you the ridiculous amounts of CAPITALS and !!!!'s will.
I'm sure it's a "nice" read if you're just wanting to burn a few hours in an airport and you're not too fussed about detail, but if you're after something with a bit of substance this isn't it. Sadly, I haven't found one that is yet either! If you can recommend one please do - thayer 18 AT yahoo dot com.
Fantastic read! - Rated
The postie delivered this at 7.30am, I then went back to bed and didn't get up until I had read the whole book cover to cover. A fantastic and inspiring read, I'm just sorry I've finished it really!
Just lovely reading whilst pregnant - Rated
I read this book so quickly I'm looking for something comparable to read. It's not that there's anything I didn't particularly know about. It was just so lovely to read something honest. Jools comes across really beautifully and I just love her approach to motherhood. She's balanced but honest about when she was being neurotic or nervous.
It helped that I lived around the corner from where they lived so was very familiar with her local haunts and just wish I could have been a part of their NCT group!
a fab read best enjoyed by the pregnant - Rated
loved this book could not put it down i think i read it cover to cover in about 24 hours! A rare book i can come back to and read again and again it's such a brilliant read.
it's got me through 2 pregnancies and hopefully a couple more yet - couldn't reccommend it highly enough!
