's review

really liked it

4 stars!

It's been a while since I read a SEP book and I'm so glad I decided to read this book.
In a way it was like reading her for the first time I was again amazed at what a wonderful storyteller she is. This is my third book in the Chicago stars series and it's the story of cal and Jane.

description

"Nobody's baby but mine" was so entertaining right from the first chapter, the way Jane is obsessed about having a baby minus a husband. How everything becomes one huge mess that involves Cal, since his was used as a sperm donor. But he decides to make everything right whisking Jane to the wonderful town of "salvation."

description

Cal and Jane were an explosive couple to say the least but oh but so hilarious. At times I was a bit frustrated I kinda wanted to slap some sense into both of them since neither of them would back down. I loved Cal's family especially his parents, how their background love story was intertwined with Cal and Jane's. We also meet Cal's brother Ethan and there's the mention of his older brother Gabe. I'm nervous to read Gabe's book since I know he went through a devastating tragedy, I think his book will have a more serious tone.

description

This was definitely a fantastic book that had a bit of everything, it was hilarious, sweet, emotional, and yes even frustrating at times. But wonderfully written full of heart and love with an amazing ending. <3

Alp Wonderful review, hon. I totally agree with you about how frustrating Cal and Jane could be at times. But it was just a minor problem. Overall it was a good read. I enjoyed it as well. :))

Tsukino_chelo i agree withh you..she really is a great story teller..its been a while since i read this book, and looking bak i recall that there were many elements invloved in the story that if handled poorly would have gone bad. but SEP, somehow ties it all and made a wonderful story that will make you fall in love with the characters...

p.s.: in the world of books and stories there are so many outstanding tragedies. but i still think that nothing still beats a book that can make you smile.

Thank you! You're absolutely right SEP just has this magical way of writing her stories than it's simple but engrossing at the same time. Her books are not perfect but she somehow makes them work. That's my favorite kinda book the one that leaves you with a smile on your face😊

I know! I haven’t been brave enough for Cal’s book but hopefully soon. Definitely love the banter on this one too.
