3/5
This book was not all bad, but good grief you could play a drinking game on how many times the author used the word breast. First few times, yeah, I get it but it was way to many and most annoying. It was understood she was breastfeeding without saying it so much. Then there is the scene where Isa and her boyfriend have the huge fight about her smoking one cigarette, it was not at the same time as she took her child to latch on to her breast, but before. Isa of course felt so guilty that she cried and did not want baby to smell smoke when she took her to her breast. However, she had no problem consuming alcohol, even gets drunk, knowing she is breastfeeding her child. One scene she is actually drinking a few glasses of wine in a Pub as she whips out her breast to feed. The same can be said with the caffeine.
The story itself was not to bad, I did like the different cultured characters. Isa herself did not impress me. She's a lawyer, yet she ain't the brightest crayon in the box. The baby did not add to this story. Not sure what the point was to having added to her. I did figure it out, before it was revealed who did what and why. Some questions were never answered tho, and it is left of to the reader to decide.
I had hope for this book. I had planned on reading her other books, now I am not sure if I will. This is the second one I have read of hers and was expecting a lot more.
