review 1: I had high hopes for this book but ultimately found it very frustrating. I didn't engage with Alison and found her internal monologue and questions mildly obnoxious. Also, when we get to the should we/shouldn't we have a kid...if you're that unsure, don't have a kid. With a man or a woman or a baster or an alien. Don't do it. What could have been an interesting look at desire and family dynamics and queer struggles comes out flat.
review 2: I am tired of all the Bush bashing. Note to author: He is no longer President; hasn't been for four years. I was so angry by the political garbage I would have tossed the book, but it is my Book Club's choice this month, so was forced to finish. She should go back to nonfiction where hopefully her writing is about true th... moreings. I didn't appreciate being described as not bright since I voted for Bush (both times). less
