Just as lovely as the Interpreter of Maladies.

Finished:

I bought this for a plane ride. Complete froth.

Recommended for Mothers to Be:



Both of these books have been good references. I can skip over parts that don't apply to me and read chapter by chapter/month by month looking ahead to see what is coming.

Other Mother Reading:

This book was fun, but maybe not a must read. I'm not sure I'm a "girlfriend". Oddly during my first trimester I felt nauseated whenever I picked up this book. It may not be the book's fault. I am, afterall, pregnant.
I did really like the chapter about what was necessary to buy and what could be skipped.

And Even More Mother Reading:

I enjoyed reading this book about calming babies by simulating the womb environment. I dont feel I can really weigh in on the book until I try it with my baby.

Recommended for Travelers:

This was perfect for our latest trip to Hawaii. It's breezy and funny, and gives great advice on what to see and do from a very local perspective, although big touisty things are covered as well. Using the book we were able to check out a few secluded spots with the aid of 4WD. If you are planning a trip to the Big Island you must read this book.

Recommended Reading:

Pam's book was a wonderful beach read in Hawaii. Even if you aren't planning on going to a beach this winter, go ahead and pick it up.

Finished:

When I bought this book the cashier said, "They made this into a television show." I replied, "They sure did!" Then she said, "It sure wasn't on very long."
Oh well.
