Ayinde is a beautiful, biracial newscaster who moves to Philadelphia after her husband, a star player for the NBA, is traded to the 76ers. She meets Becky, an overweight chef who plays the "pregnant or just fat" game every time she passes a mirror, and Kelly, an overachieving event planner who has her whole life mapped out down to the most minute details, after going into labor at a prenatal yoga class. The three become fast friends, and come to rely on each other for everything from burping techniques to intense emotional support. The group grows to include Lia, a semi-famous Hollywood starlet who leaves her husband and returns to Philly after a sudden tragedy.
While Little Earthquakes may leave little to the imagination, and some of the characters are laughably stereotypical (the Mama's boy Jewish doctor and the cheating ball player, to name a few), it is Weiner's gift for creating compelling characters with whom her readers can identify that make her such a successful storyteller. --Gisele Toueg -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine vergriffene oder nicht verfügbare Ausgabe dieses Titels.

Described are here the stories about four women around motherhood. Very different fates (one lost her boy to the sudden kids death, another one is hyperprotective, the next one struggles with her mother in law and the third one with over-organisation) are meeting here by accident and the four of them become friends.
Jennifer Weiner writes very personal and believable about those life stories - but sometimes it lacked a little esprit.
Nevertheless the book gets more exciting after its own half-time and all of the ladies see a way how to overcome their own problems - especially by re-thinking and shifting perspectives.
All in all I liked reading the book much - even though I am not overenthusiastic about it.
