The Baby Plan

A Novel

By: Kate Rorick

Narrated by: Eva Kaminsky

In Kate Rorick's first adult fiction novel, we enter the wild, bewildering world of modern pregnancies. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll shake your head as you wonder where everyone's sanity went....

Meet the mothers....

Nathalie Kneller: Nathalie's plan: to announce her pregnancy now that she's finally made it past 12 weeks! But just as she's about to deliver (so to speak) the big news to her family, her scene-stealing sister barfs all over the Thanksgiving centerpiece. Yup, Lyndi's pregnant too, swiping the spotlight once more....

Lyndi Kneller: Lyndi's plan: finally get her life together! She's got a new apartment, new promotion, new boyfriend. What she didn't count on - a new baby! She can barely afford her rent, much less a state-of-the-art stroller....

Sophia Nunez: Sophia's plan: Once she gets her daughter Maisey off to college, she'll finally be able to enjoy life as makeup artist to one of Hollywood's biggest stars and girlfriend to one of rock's hottest musicians. But after 18 years she discovers the stork is once again on its way....

Now these women are about to jump headlong into the world of modern-day pregnancy. It's a world of over-the-top gender reveal parties (with tacky cakes and fireworks); where every morsel you eat is scrutinized and discussed; where baby names are crowdsourced and sonograms are Facebook-shared. And where nothing goes as planned....

Fun, easy read!

I really enjoyed this book. It was a fun, fast, and easy read. The storyline easily merged the different characters and their stories together.

Very well written

This book seamlessly knits four stories together, leaving no gaps. Very well written, and expertly performed.

Loved it!!!

I wasn’t sure how much I would enjoy this book but I knew I really liked the reader so I took a chance. And found the book delightful. I enjoyed reading about each woman’s experiences and the commonalities as well as the differences. Get this book…you will not be disappointed.

Light, easy story

This was pretty much what I expected, which is fine. I enjoyed it. It’s pretty light (though there is “drama”) and I liked how all the characters’ lives intertwined. Narration was good.

Thoroughly Enjoyed It!

At 6 months pregnant, I found this book oh so relatable! It was such a fun read, I loved all the characters. Highly recommend it!

Fun, easy read

This book was really fun to read/listen to. I liked all the characters, and I was actually somewhat surprised by some of the little twists in there. It was light, but not total fluff, as there was some drama too. The perfect book for someone who needs a good escape from real life. I am definitely glad I chose this book, and I hope the author writes more in the same vein.
