Book News: Babymoon by Melanie La'Brooy
August 12th, 2009 by Chloe
Although I haven’t heard of her, Melanie La’Brooy is back in September with her 4th novel. Published by Piatkus on 3rd September, Babymoon looks to be a funny look at impending motherhood, and sounds like one I will really enjoy! Here’s the synopsis:
“The countdown to mummydom has started …Isabelle and Jack are expecting their first child. And Isabelle is the very model of a calm Earth Mother-to-be. Or she would be if she wasn’t consumed by anxiety about finding her pelvic floor, watching birthing videos or being accepted into the yummy mummy parade with a very practical mobility system. Even worse, as Isabelle’s tummy grows, so does the distance between her and her adored Dr Jack who, it seems, has quite different priorities. But with the support of a host of new mothers and friends all full of the worst possible advice, just maybe Isabelle can make it through pregnancy and childbirth with her dignity, her relationship and some more private bits intact. Then again, maybe not.”




















Posted an interview with Melanie last week, have this one to review. Sounds like a fun read
