Book Description:
Quinn "Q" Boothroyd is a young British lawyer married to an American and living in New York City. She's checked off most of the boxes on her "Modern Woman's List of Things to Do Before Hitting 30," and her busy working life has been relatively painless. But when her doctor tells her she must spend the last three months of her pregnancy lying in bed, Q is thrown into a tailspin. Initially bored and frustrated, Q's days soon fill up as she tries to reconnect with her workaholic husband, provide legal advice for her sweet Greek neighbor, find romance for a loyal co-worker, forge new emotional bonds with her mother and sisters, and figure out who will keep her stocked up in cookies and sandwiches.

This book is an easy read in one day. While it covers several serious subjects (high rick pregnancy, troubled marriage, job dissatisfaction, disfunctional family relations, and corporate misbeahvior, amongst just a few of the subplots!) the author has a humorous way of presenting them to the reader. I will be looking for more of her works. Enjoy!

A very quick & fun read. Reminded me a lot of Sophie Kinsella's writing.

Very quick, amusing, one-day read. Many different topics covered in this book, some funny moments and in spite of the fact that I didn't like very many of the characters, I enjoyed the book overall!
