I don't understand why nobody has written a review for this one yet. I read it years ago and still feel it's one of Weldon's best novels. It's a must for every pregnant women - as the hilarious story centers around a pregnancy. And it's certainly equally important for every woman considering this step! Containing about as many chapters as a pregnancy has weeks, the novel is simultaneously funny, fast-paced, quirky and oh so true. Weldon's prose was never more hard-hitting, albeit the fairy-tale-like setting.

Give it a try, you'll like it.

Excellent book about good vs. evil with lots of other conflicts. Weldon writes about these things with such wit that I laughed out loud more than once. Nothing is left hanging at the end, and I like that. The ending had a very unexpected twist for me, but you'll have to read it to see if you're surprised too. Read this and any other Weldon book you can get your hands on. She never disappoints.
