"It appears that the help has been taking notes, and good ones. The help is very sharp-eyed indeed. The Nanny Diaries is diabolically funny...vastly entertaining...perfectly pitched social satire," raves The New York Times. Academy Award-winning actress Julia Roberts narrates this popular and critically acclaimed book - an enthusiastic skewering of high society written by two former nannies.

To five-year-old Jack, Room is the entire world. It is where he was born and grew up; it's where he lives with his Ma as they learn and read and eat and sleep and play. At night, his Ma shuts him safely in the wardrobe, where he is meant to be asleep when Old Nick visits. Room is home to Jack, but to Ma, it is the prison where Old Nick has held her captive for seven years. Through determination, ingenuity, and fierce motherly love, Ma has created a life for Jack. But she knows it's not enough...not for her or for him.

"Bein' a idiot is no box of chocolates," but "at least I ain't led no hum-drum life," says Forrest Gump, the lovable, surprisingly savvy hero of this wonderful comic tale. When the University of Alabama's football team drafts Forrest and makes him a star, that's only the beginning! He flunks out - and goes on to be a Vietnam war hero, a world-class Ping-Pong player, a wrestler, and a business tycoon. He compares battle scars with Lyndon Johnson, discovers the truth about Richard Nixon, and suffers the ups and downs of true love.

Not what I expected
Well written, I have the feeling I'd really like the authors. It just wasn't the light, "airplane" book I'd been looking for. I know it is fiction, but it read like it was real...

Exasperating
I found the main character quite pathetic and could not get over her weakness in the face of the monstrous personalities she invited into her life. This character flaw was too overwhelming and it prevented me from enjoying the great narration by Kate Mazur.

I downloaded this book for a long drive with my wife (Who used to be a nannny). It was putting us both to sleep so we had to turn it off

Ok. Not great.
Started really good and interesting.
Unfortunately the book gets reparative very quickly .
The characters don’t evolve at all.
Badly structured story.
The message and social criticism gets lost in boring storylines.
Had trouble finishing it. Powered through in hope the book will get better , but it did not.
Just watch the movie instead, the screenwriter at least knows how to tell a story, and keeps the audience interested.
