Customer Reviews

So glad I found this!

This book was on one of the "if you like this you might like this" things and I went ahead and picked it up on a whim. My friend grabbed the book I originally got when the order came in so I wound up reading this one first and was completely engrossed for two days! Letts is a terrific storyteller and I am so glad to find an author who writes so well about a controversial subject. This is women's fiction at its best and I've already ordered her next one.

Great story

I really enjoyed this book. I thought the quality of writing was great. So much attention was paid to each of the characters that I could picture each of them. The women in the clinic were my favorites. You could feel the camaraderie between them. I highly recommend this book.

Strong Female Characters

What I love about Elizabeth Letts is how strong her female characters are, how supportive and understanding. While the suspenseful story draws you in, it's the characters and their tolerance for one another that stays with you long after you reach the last page. I can't wait to see what this talented author does next!

page turner

This book grabs you on the first page and never lets go! Sweet, funny, sad and revealing - all in one readable book! It's great to read about the variety of people that make up most of our everyday world.

Another fantastic book by Elizabeth Letts!

Family Planning is a novel that sucks you in right from the first pages. Letts has filled the book wth a well-drawn cast of quirky characters whom you'll wish you could hang out with. The story is heartwrenching, suspenseful, and beautifully written. I can't wait for the next one!
