[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Nobody's Baby But Mine[/b] by Susan Elizabeth Phillips. A nerdy college professor tricks a dumb NFL quarterback into having a baby. Except he's not so dumb... Very escapist, it takes a nice, empowering frontier-ladies-feminist turn toward the middle of the book. For the classic in escapism that is fantasy-ish, Beauty: a retelling of Beauty and the Beast, by Robin McKinley[/quote] Ok I just read this, based on this recommendation, and FWIW I hated it. The two main characters are just self-centered jerks and I didn't want either one to "win", and I didn't really buy their change of heart once they did. I usually love romcoms of all stripes but none of these jokes landed for me. Blergh. Approach with caution.[/quote]
