Baby Proof

Baby Proof by Emily Giffin—

Description from Amazon:

“A novel that explores the question: Is there ever a deal-breaker when it comes to true love? Claudia Parr has everything going for her. A successful editor at a publishing house in Manhattan, she's also a devoted sister, aunt, and friend. Yet she's never wanted to become a mother--which she discovers is a major hurdle to marriage, something she desperately wants. Then she meets her soul mate Ben who, miraculously, feels the same way about parenthood. The two fall in love and marry, committed to one another and their life of adventure and discovery. All's well until one of them has a change of heart. Someone wants a baby after all.This is the witty, heartfelt story about what happens to the perfect couple when they suddenly want different things and there is no compromise. It's about deciding what is most important in life and wagering everything to get it. And most of all, it's about the things we will--and won't--do for love.”

My thoughts: I don’t have a lot to say about this book. I thought it would be emotionally engaging, but instead I found it to be quite bland. Claudia is not a very likable character. In fact, she was so shallow it was hard to care what happened to her. Ben was marginally interesting but I lost interest well before the end.
