Excerpt from Kirkus Reviews:
A debut novel, based on the author’s experiences, about a hopeful young woman’s trials and tribulations with infertility and family planning…Despite its heavy subject matter, the story is well-paced and witty, sometimes even laugh-out-loud funny…the narrative is fast-paced and engaging, often reading like a casual conversation between girlfriends…the tale will ring true for many who have endured similar struggles…A sometimes-difficult but uplifting read about the resilience of parents, even before their child-rearing journey begins.”
Excerpts from AMAZON.com reviews:
“I think it’s hard to imagine one book touching on the personal, the professional, and the political. But ‘Baby Factories’ pulls all this together with sprinklings of wit, wisdom, and wisecracks throughout. No matter who you are, you’ll find something to love in this book!”
“…this impressive debut offers a fresh and engaging perspective in the voice of its narrator and protagonist. I found myself laughing time and time again at her wry observations and silly asides even as she faced some of the most painful experiences imaginable.”
“This is not your typical mommy memoir but a best friends guide to a day in modern life.”
“I read the book in one day — I could not put it down until the end. Excellent book”
“An insightful read for anyone struggling with infertility – or knows someone else who is”
