Summary: The Men are From Mars, Women are from Venus Pregnancy Guide
Review: A must read for anyone (and their partner) who has been pregnant or is thinking about it. The writing is sharp, witty and pinpoints with perfect accuracy the "he-thinks" "she-thinks" travails of pregnancy.

Summary: The Men are From Mars, Women are from Venus Pregnancy Guide
Review: I still haven't finished "The Three of Us" but felt compelled to write my opinion as soon as possible. In fact I'm taking my time to read it because I really don't want it to end. I am also British and, like Peter and Joanna (or used to) live here in the West Village with my British husband. My delight is to read that two fellow Brits frequent the same supermarkets, bars, shops and even use the same health club as I. The fact that they are having a baby is thrilling to me as I have been fretting over starting a family myself and feel better knowing that they have gone through this transition with humor, patience and great tales of their day to day events that occur in this mad crazy city. On completion of this book I fully intend to purchase Peter Godwin's "Mukiwa, A White Boy in Africa". It's just a pity that they don't live in the Village anymore as I would of loved to have ran into the three of them.

Summary: Bridget Jones for Smug Marrieds!
Review: Joanna and Peter are far from the 'smug marrieds' Helen Fielding talks about but they are just as engaging and enjoyable as Bridget Jones. Their writing makes you feel like one of their best friends. They share their daily observations on pregnancy and impending parenthood with honesty and wit.Read it and then share with all your friends!

Summary: Intereresting concept but story was too disappointing
Review: Maybe I didn't get it since I am not a New Yorker. I don't really care that this couple wasn't married, but the lack of love between them was such a turnoff. Peter seemed to have a hard time believing that he had something to do with the pregnancy at all...he kept saying how he was being dragged to doctors and forced to do this and that....My conclusion is that not all writers should write....

Summary: The Experiences of Aliens in New York
Review: The authors have managed to capture the bizarre nuances of daily life in New York while overlaying this with the difficulties and emotions attached to a first pregnancy. As resident aliens, my wife and I have recently been dealing with the similar issues associated with the upcoming birth of our first child. This light hearted look at the processes required to give birth in the New York also provided us with forwarning of the costs, bureaucracy and personalities that are inevitably encountered along the way.
