Gucci Gucci Coo

Narrated by: Sue Margolis

The acclaimed author of Neurotica finds fertile ground for her wicked wit in this ferociously funny new novel about babies, sex, celebrity... and daring to date a gynecologist.

Ruby (still single at thirty-two) Silverman has made a name for herself at Les Sprogs, her exclusive baby boutique where trust-fund mothers swaddle their infants in the hottest designer wear. But all those bumps and babes can't prepare Ruby for the bombshell her fifty-year-old mother drops on her: Ruby's about to get... a baby brother or sister!

When Ruby recovers from the shock of her mother's pregnancy, she can't help but question her own baby making future. Is catering to celebrity mums and cooing over her friends' kids all she has to look forward to? Sam Epstein would passionately disagree. He's the gorgeous Jewish gynecologist who has set his amorous sights on her. Soon they're seriously involved, and life seems to be looking up for Ruby. Until she stumbles upon a shady baby-brokering business that could erupt into a major scandal, derail her career, and maybe even force her to toss the supposedly perfect man out with the bathwater.

A easy listen

The beginning was a bit slow, but once it started to pick up, it was an entertaining read between Ruby dating a gynecologist, her 50 year old mother being pregnant and everything else in between that happened. I thought the whole scandal was extremely creative and definitely surprising. The ending was a nice touch to the book because it wrapped everything up so there were no unanswered questions.

Cute story, great beach listen.

This book isn't amazing, but its a fun listen and doesn't get too graphic or deep. I enjoyed it enough to keep listening and to look forward to it when I did put it on. Great voices, I loved her parents.

Cute book

I read this book only a month ago and cannot remember that much about it.

NO NO NO

This book by Sue Margolis was a waste of a credit what ever possessed this woman to write this then read it is beyond me. A few minutes was enough

Not up to my British chick lit standard

If you're looking for a witty, lighthearted, engaging story, I'd suggest you try something else.

The poor plot was just overworked. The premise had some potential, but the story plodded along without much grace to get from point A to B. More than one time as I listened, I was haunted by the old high school literary term: "Deus ex Machina!" That can't be good, right, if you only want a fun listen to accompany housework?

The narration was not distracting, but I do prefer a book not narrated by its author.
