Description: As the co-founders of The Curvy Girls Club, where loving yourself is the only rule, can these friends practice what they preach?
Ellie is fresh back from her honeymoon and can’t wait to share her news with her best friends Katie and Jane. She's going to have a baby on Christmas day! To everyone’s surprise, mother-of-two, Jane, has news of her own… The women will be due a day apart, and Katie can’t wait to be an honorary aunt to the babies.
But as the months go on, everyone is finding it hard to keep their sense of humor, not to mention their self-esteem, in the face of swollen feet and pregnancy pants. Add a clingy mother-in-law, a career in cardiac arrest and a sex life that's making Mother Theresa look lusty, and soon the women's lives are as out of control as their bodies.
My Thoughts: One of my favorite go-to authors when I want a story with characters the reader can really relate to and a story the reader can completely immerse themselves in.
I really enjoyed the premise of these best friends who all fall pregnant at the same time. The ups and downs, the morning sickness, the swelling ankles, the expanding waistline, the food cravings, the emotional roller-coasters, meddling in-laws, unsympathetic bosses, the list goes on and on. Through it all Ellie, Katie and Jane have each other to support one another, celebrate the ups and sympathize with the downs.
This is a sequel to The Curvy Girls Club so I recommend reading that one first to get to know Ellie, Katie and Jane a little bit beforehand.
