El club del pudin (Spanish Edition)

The author hinted that she and view spoiler [Teddy hide spoiler ] would end up together but they had no chemistry at all. I personally thought that the way they handled their pregnancies were a little unrealistic. They carried on with their lives and attended all the antenatal sessions and had relevant appointments just like that. There was no portrayal of denial or refusal to do the norm due to their conflicted emotions.

Anyhow, the author did a good job at depicting their friendship. The way Simon was written truly did justice in showing how terribly awful he was. I wished I could reach into the pages and punch him repeatedly. His eventual comeuppance was probably the best part of the book — it was hilarious and definitely well-deserved. Jan 01, Carol rated it it was amazing.

This is the first Milly Johnson book I've read and it's the start to many more. It's a fab read, full of life just like the characters. It's never boring or repetitive and moves along at just the right pace. It's a very easy read and very funny, but it has it's sad parts too and I found myself laughing out loud one minute and crying the next.

At the end I was doing both at the same time. The characters are all very different and immediately likeable and you can really feel the bond they share. T This is the first Milly Johnson book I've read and it's the start to many more. They all get pregnant at the same time and for the first time and you go through a roller coaster ride of mixed emotions regarding the pregnancies, relationships, loves and loses with them.

I can highly recommend this book. If your a mother who loved being pregnant, I think you'll enjoy it even more. Sep 20, Rebecca rated it liked it Shelves: I liked this, though some things did annoy me - I didn't like how the main focus was on Elizabeth, and how Helen was the leat utilised, as I thought the dynamics of Helen and Simon's relationship could have been explored a lot more.

I didn't like how long it took for them all to find out they were pregnant, because the blurb had already given that away and so the first pages or so felt like a lot of filler.

The Yorkshire Pudding Club

It was funny, cute and romantic but the characters also dealt with some serious issues. It is the first book by Milly Johnson that I have read but I very much doubt it will be the last. Definitely recommended if you're in the mood for a book about pregnancy and impending motherhood. The Yorkshire pudding club was very entertaining. Als je op zoek bent naar een leuk boek voor tussendoor, dan is dit zeker een aanrader. Hoewel de hoofdpersonen ook wel minder leuke dingen meemaken is de sfeer van het boek positief en vrolijk.

Het is soms wel wat voorspelbaar, maar dat heb je met dit genre chicklit wel vaker. In het begin moest ik even in het verhaal komen, maar toen ik erin zat, las het lekker weg. Nov 14, Nicola Clough rated it it was amazing. A really good read funny at times and just an excellent story of three women who have met at uni and stayed friends and all have partners. They all fall pregnant and will they have fun together or will all three ladies have disasters a must read. Jun 20, Sarah rated it liked it Shelves: Another fun read, guilty pleasure escapism, with some laugh-aloud moments too.

There's something special about Milly Johnson's novels; once I start one I can't put it down. Aug 09, Stephanie rated it really liked it.

A light-hearted story set in South Yorskhire. Three friends picnicked on top of an ancient fertility symbol, who could have known that within 4 months they would all have had their own eggs fertilised! For Helen pregnancy is a dream come true, but as well as this wonderful dream comes the truth of outwardly perfect marriage crumbling before her eyes. Her husband George is ecstatic at the prospect of being a father.

And the emotionally lost Elizabeth is not only carrying a child she fears she will never love, but she must also deal with the return of a man who love she can never have. With the story involving 3 women of the same age going through similar things it was a bit tricky distinguishing between them at the beginning, but the differences in personality and lives soon became clear. I warmed to each of the ladies and found their own personal journeys fun to read about. The observations about pregnancy were spot on, as well as those about work and relationships.

Although generally lightweight, there were still some darker undertones in the ladies' lives which added further realism. Despite this, there was generally an upbeat, humorous sort of tone like that found in Bridget Jones and I loved how much the three were complete BFFs and shared everything.

Yes, I'm sorry but I enjoyed this. Would make great holiday reading or, as in my case, respite from more serious reads. A lovely feel good story from the talented Milly Johnson. Apr 07, Mary Culver added it. A laugh and a funny loveable story. Easy to read and follow the different ladies. Will be reading more of this author. Jun 28, Hannah rated it really liked it. Johnson's books are a breath of fresh air. Not so with 'The Yorkshire Pudding Club'.

In this fun, warm and interesting novel, three something women from South Yorkshire, who have been friends since school, fall pregnant at the same time and all in very different circumstances. Johnson manages to tell their stories in such a way that you can't help but root for each one of them.

They all have past and current issues, ranging from child abuse and bullying to infidelity. Johnson deals with these sensitively and compassionately whilst not undermining their complexity. Something Johnson is VERY good at is creating male characters so slimy, so manipulative, so despicable, that you just want to climb into the book and kick them in the nether regions. However, she balances this well with a 'cracking' sense of humour as they say in South Yorkshire that saves 'The Yorkshire Pudding Club' from becoming an indulgence into the dark and depressing and rather maintains its persona of a funny, enjoyable read.

See a Problem?

This isn't to say that Johnson skimps on the consequences of each of the character's pasts. Each of them has to live with the effects of what has happened and challenge those behaviours that have become ingrained as a result. Johnson's intelligent and down-to-earth 'chick-lit' is a welcome break of irreverent escapism whilst presenting the reader with emotionally complicated undertones.

She also enforces the novel idea that women can look nice with a bit of meat on them.

Whenever I read chick lit, which is less Ann's less, there is always formula fiction and here it is no different. The book was funnier than most though. The author threw in a few none existent words and made some grammatical errors. I would expe A better chick lit novel but still formula fiction.

I would expected for the price there would have been large numbers and not just location markers. On at least two occasions a name was mentioned in the book and never again and I have no idea who they were. Bob was mentioned on one page and on a search there were 2 other Bob's in the book.

Bob the builder was mentioned as was Bob Geldof but I doubt thus Bob was either of those. There was also a weird comparison and 'number' obsession Also, I like a book like this to be plausible. We hear of a small quiet village with a lovely important Italian restaurant, a few shops, a kindergarten and an old fashioned cinema Also, I assumed this book was set in the 21st century yet George is ridiculed for being a house husband, it doesn't occur to Janey for some time to keep her job and Y front's are still trendy..

I enjoyed this book though I am baffled as to why so many readers say it's hysterically funny. It's so much deeper than that.

I thought Simon was a bit over the top as a villain and went away far too quietly for a pathological wife abuser, but the three female leads are endearing. This book has amusing moments but is a much more satisfying read than the average piece of chick-lit. It deals with very important issues such as spousal abuse, assisted suicide, rape, incest, cheating, finan I enjoyed this book though I am baffled as to why so many readers say it's hysterically funny.

It deals with very important issues such as spousal abuse, assisted suicide, rape, incest, cheating, financial stress, business downsizing I call those topics hysterically funny Not. What, for example happened to Elizabeth's older sister? She is frequently mentioned but her disappearance is never solved. Did she run away or was she murdered? The scene where Helen helps her father take his own life was both convincing and heartbreaking.

It actually left me in tears. I really enjoyed this though I struggled-as usual with multiple characters' points of view in the same sentence continuously. I also had problems with many words, but the online slang dictionary is my friend: The mystery of Elizabeth's missing sister is resolved in A Summer Fling. It was not what I expected Jan 04, Emily rated it liked it. I listened to this audible book in a few short days. I enjoyed the idea and storyline, along with the subject.

The characters were all likable and well developed. However, I had a hard time keeping all the characters and storylines straight at times. I had to concentrate super hard, and also I had to re listen to different chapters. In the end I really found myself wanting to know more about the other characters, and how things turned out for them.

I finished feeling like the ending was rushed. Jan 22, Sue Burton rated it really liked it. Liked this book and really liked the main characters. A feel good book.

An easy read with plenty of feel good factor. Jan 14, Pauline added it.

So funny in parts but serious as well. Hope I have more of hers to read. This isn't one of my usual genres, but I had sort of accidentally read another by her and enjoyed it, so why not? I've classified this as 'Chick Lit of sorts ' even though I know that Chick Lit can be seen as a term.

I read a lot of books in this genre in my 20s and 30s, and, therefore, I do not feel derogatory about the entire genre. And this book shows the strengths and weaknesses that typify this genre.
