Journal Entry 1 by nikel27 from -- Irgendwo / Somewhere --, Hessen Germany on Wednesday, May 21, 2003
Bella Browning is attractive, successful and ambitious. She works hard, plays hard and adores her journalist husband Don (even though she doesn’t always behave as well as she should). But deep down she knows there’s something missing .. a baby. Don is terrified by the prospect but after all, Bella’s a top Management Consulant turning around multi-million pound corporations ... she can handle this ! Can’t she?
In between bouts of morning sickness, raging hormones and a few indiscretions with gorgeous Chris from the office, she quickly discovers how very hard it is to be the perfect, working modern mother with the sex appeal of a Grecian goddess. But Bella is a woman of many talents and she’s not about to be beaten....

Journal Entry 6 by EllyMae58 from El Cajon, California USA on Friday, September 19, 2003
It's here! Yay! This one looks like I'll be able to dive right into it...and I think I will. My current bookray read is not grabbing me, unfortunately, and I find I don't want to pick the book up. I bet this one I won't be able to put down!
I will read and pass on as quickly as possible! :)

Journal Entry 7 by EllyMae58 from El Cajon, California USA on Friday, September 19, 2003
I started reading this tonight. The main character has the same birthday as me (May 8) and her husband's name is the same as the guy I've recently starting dating (Don). How weird is that? My name isn't Bella though....maybe I could change it to Kella...LOL. :)

Journal Entry 8 by EllyMae58 from El Cajon, California USA on Monday, September 29, 2003
Yay! I've finally managed to squeeze in some reading time and finish this book! I started out liking this book, but towards the last third of it, I no longer enjoyed it. Thought it was a bit drawn out, and should have been over a lot sooner than it was.
Plus, some of the author's descriptions about sex...ack! "Spermy wetness"? Oh gross!

Journal Entry 9 by hbriggs1031 from Georgetown, Texas USA on Tuesday, October 7, 2003
Can't wait to read..... Thanks nikel27 for the opportunity to read this.

~~~Ok, I don't know why, but I had a hard time getting interested in this book. Phooey on me.

Release planned for Tuesday, October 14, 2003 at BookRay in Round Rock, Texas USA.

Journal Entry 13 by talkland from Eastbourne, East Sussex United Kingdom on Monday, March 8, 2004
This really wasn't my cup of tea. I didn't warm at all to Bella, the main character and thought that she was a bit of a slapper!

I've begun reading this book today and have contacted the next person for an address.

Journal Entry 25 by sharalsbooks from Mesa, Arizona USA on Thursday, January 5, 2006
This book just didn't grab me. I had a hard time connecting with Bella and at the first sign of adultery, it went downhill from there.

I haven't heard back from veracity so I will PM hshah today for an address.

Journal Entry 27 by hshah from Mumbai, Maharashtra India on Friday, February 24, 2006
Hello! Received this today and am going to crack it over the weekend.


Journal Entry 28 by hshah from Mumbai, Maharashtra India on Thursday, March 2, 2006
Wierd!
I just couldn't get interested in the book nor connect with Bella. Adultery, when she claims to be so very in love with her husband - well ....

However I did manage to complete it!
Have sent a PM to nureia, but no reply. Shall wait for a few more days.





Journal Entry 29 by hshah from Mumbai, Maharashtra India on Tuesday, March 21, 2006
The book went out to chrisim in Finland
today, Happy Reading!.


Journal Entry 30 by chrisim from Tampere, Pirkanmaa / Birkaland Finland on Saturday, April 1, 2006
Thanks, book from India arrived yesterday with another ringbook. I'll try to read it during my holidays.

EDIT June, 15.
Sorry it took so long to begin reading this. All the other ring books, you know...

I didn't like much of the book or Bella. But the last third of the book, when Bella learns to join family and work, was ok. The ending was something to be expected too... :)

Bella was so desperate to have a baby, but how come she didn't care of herself during she was pregnant? She drank a lot, smoked and worked till the end, not to speak of her messing with Chris. I can understand that this is a little bit parody, but still. By the way, don't you have maternity leave BEFORE labour in UK??? And what about her husband insisting her to start working again (and stop breastfeeding) after six weeks the baby was born. Huh, what an attitude! Is that common? I thought first that there must be a mistake, because six months would sound more reasonable to get back to work. Of cource if you don't get any maternity benefit you have to get back to work, but isn't six week too soon? Apparently there are big differences between European countries.

Well, the book discussed about depression after labour and pointed out that it's very difficult to ask help. Fortunately Bella fixed all and maybe grew up a little?

Journal Entry 31 by chrisim from Tampere, Pirkanmaa / Birkaland Finland on Thursday, June 15, 2006
I'll send the book to bija007 today.

Journal Entry 32 by bija007 from Ginsheim-Gustavsburg, Hessen Germany on Thursday, June 22, 2006
Yesterday I have found the book in my postbox. Thank you very much chrisim for sending it!! Due the fact that I had time to finish my last book yesterday (my trip Offenbach-home took me 2,5 hours) I did already start to read this one.


Edit 21.7.2006
Actually I liked the book. First I was a bit afraid reading something in English, but it worked surprizingly well. So it will be returned to the sender as soon as I'll get an answer.
