This is another book by one of my favorite authors Emily Giffin. I have written a post about her two of her other books early on this blog. At first I thought this book was going to be a continuation from Something Borrowed and Something Blue but it wasn't. Baby Proof is a completely different storyline about Claudia Parr a woman who meets the love of her life who agrees with her to have a child-free marriage. Their lives both change after one of them has a change of heart. It's a witty story that shows us the ups and downs of love and life. I don't think it is as good as her first two books but definitely keep my interest and another book I read in under two days.
Here's a description from Amazon.com:
From the author of the smash hits Something Borrowed and Something Blue comes a novel that explores the question: is there ever a deal-breaker when it comes to true love?
First comes love. Then comes marriage. Then comes . . . a baby carriage? Isn’t that what all women want? Not so for Claudia Parr. And just as she gives up on finding a man who feels the same way, she meets warm, wonderful Ben. Things seem too good to be true when they fall in love and agree to buck tradition with a satisfying, child-free marriage. Then the unexpected occurs: one of them has a change of heart. One of them wants children after all. This is the witty, heartfelt story about what happens to the perfect couple when they suddenly want different things. It’s about feeling that your life is set and then realizing that nothing is as you thought it was---and that there is no possible compromise. It’s about deciding what is most important in life, and taking chances to get it. But most of all, it’s about the things we will do---and won’t do---for love.
