Baby Proof








Baby Proof by Emily Giffin

This book is surprising, thoughtful, intelligent and fun. This book stars Claudia Parr who throughout her life, has sworn up and down to potential boyfriends, inquiring friends, concerned family and anyone else that she absolutely DOES NOT want children EVER. She enjoys her job, her Manhattan life and her freedom. Ben, her husband and soulmate, is more than happy to remain childless alongside her. But when Claudia and Ben's closest friends announce that they're expecting, Ben starts to wonder if maybe a baby wouldn't be that bad, maybe a baby will bring more meaning to their lives. Claudia, though, doesn't have a change-of-heart. She emphatically refuses to even consider a rugrat. So, even though they had a pre-nuptial "deal" to remain childless, Ben and Claudia are suddenly at an impasse in their marriage with a problem that's not at all easy to resolve. I loved the book.


Rating - R


There is about one F word per-chapter. Sex is discussed but not detailed.


Stars- **** I really love this author as well as the book! Emily Giffin has 3 books out and they are among my favorites!
