Customer Reviews

Funny and Adorable

The pink cover and catchy title really caught my attention. As soon as I started reading the book, I could not put it down. I always wanted to know what was going to happen next with Clare. The book is clever and very well written. I would strongly suggest reading this book if you are looking for an enjoyable, funny, and charming book that will just make you smile (and even laugh out loud)!

Mini vaca

Everyone seemed to be going away for a few days and I was feeling very sorry for myself so I headed off to the mall. My plan was to buy a new outfit, but first I wanted to stop at Borders to pick up a new book. I never got that outfit. I found this book and it looked so fun that I went right home. I went to work the next day with very little sleep, but I just couldn't put it down. Great fun, funny read. I finished it the next day. I loved it!! You don't have to be pregnant to enjoy it. I recommend it to anyone who wants a mini vaca.

A Gem of a Book!!! I tried to put the kids to bed early so I could continue reading it!!

I absolutely LOVED this book. I would honestly look forward to reading it each night. I really enjoyed getting to know Clare & loved laughing at all of her issues - although it felt like I was laughing with her - she was so easy to relate to - like a hilarious best friend. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time - I highly recommend this enjoyable read!!

Fun and Fantastic!

After a drunken weekend in Vegas, Clare Finnegan, event planner and mildly famous blogger, finds herself accidentally pregnant. A Bump in the Road, details the next nine months in Clare's life as she deals with her hectic job, her feuding best friends, her crazy in-laws, and of course, her pregnancy. A hilarious book filled with witty dialogue and characters with humor and heart that every woman can relate to. A perfect beach read!

Hilarious

Hilarious, sarcastic and snarky, this book is absolutely hysterical. A wonderful debut that left me wanting for more. I hope there's a follow-up to this book, as I'd love to spend more time with Clare. Perfect for anyone who knows pregnancy isn't all puppies and rainbows.
