Don't
let the cover fool you Josh and Gemma make a baby by Sarah Ready is not a
typical rom com. Though it has humor, comedy and romance I would not
classify it as a rom com or even your typical romance. As it deals with deeper
issues that rom coms don't normally tackle. But Sarah Ready does it with
tack and humor. Gemma has given up on finding Mr. Right but she still
wants a baby, so enter her brother's best friend Josh. Both go into the
arrangement without planning on being anything more than friend’s famous last
words.
I've
seen other reviews were readers were saying that Gemma was going through wasn't
realistic and it was over the top. I found it realistic and believable and not
over the top. But we live in a society where women get shamed
for their infertility even from their
own family. Gemma was easy for me to relate to. Not the inferably part or
the IVF at least not yet, but I can relate to the Endometritis diagnosis and
her reaction to it. Not every woman relates to endo the same way but like
Gemma I related to my diagnosis with humor it was the
only way I could process it. So it was nice to see it handle that way in
a book. (Though not everyone handles it that way). And I could see
myself doing something similar to Gemma if I was in her shoes. All in all a
good book that had me laughing and in tears. And Rooting for both Gemma
and Josh.
A few steamy scenes.
I received a copy of
this book from the publisher through netgalley. I was not required to write a
positive review. All opinions expressed are mine alone.
