Reader Reviews
This review is from: Little Earthquakes (Hardcover) "Little Earthquakes" was the latest selection in my book group. I wasn't sure what to expect, but after checking out the cover, I had a feeling I was going to enjoy it. And enjoy it I did! What we have are four friends that seriously bond during their pregnancies. Our main leading lady is Becky, who is married to a doctor and somewhat overweight. The other three women are Ayinde, who is married to a famous basketball player; Kelly the requisite perky blonde and Lia, an actress who has left Hollywood. The characters were so well developed that I was able to identify with them and feel their pain, so to speak. "Little Earthquakes" shows the women in all their not-so-perfect glory. We experience the birth of their children, see first hand their lack of sleep and the struggles they face while adjusting to motherhood. All the while, we are laughing along with them, at them and for them. I can't wait to discuss this book with my book group and see how much the other girls enjoyed it. I am going to thoroughly sing its praises to anyone who will listen. This is one great story! Comment | | (Report this)
