Reviews
"Clever, true-to-life...call it 'Sex and the City' for the parental set.... Zigman writes with a chatty humor that keeps you hooked from the first line." --New York Post "Funny--no path to parenthood is beyond consideration." --USA Today "[The heroine] is smart, funny and successful--she could slip right into the cast of 'Sex and the City' and kvetch with the best of them--.trolling through sperm-donor biographies with her humor in tow. Ellen is undeniably likeable, and she'd be fun to have drinks with." --The New York Times Book Review "A lark of a read--Zigman's style draws the reader into Ellen's quest." --Publishers Weekly "A tale that makes for laughs and touching moments--[Zigman] portrays a woman's love for a child so poignantly that more sentimental readers may weep--.her modern story of a woman on a baby quest is a worthy read, both well told and funny." --Kirkus Reviews "Some undeniably funny moments." --Entertainment Weekly "Fans of 'Friends' or 'Ally McBeal' will find familiar delight in Laura Zigman's comic second novel...charmingly chatty." --New YorkDaily News Praise forAnimal Husbandry: "Exceedingly funny...Clever, engaging...continually amusing." --Jonathan Yardley,The Washington Post "Wit, wisdom, and a sure comic voice...this is great fun, a dog-eared hoot. Zigman's second effort can't come too soon." --The Philadelphia Inquirer "Fresh and hilarious...should do for dumped girlfriends what Olivia Goldsmith'sThe First Wives Cluband Fay Weldon'sThe Life and Loves of a She-Devildid for dumped wives: hearten, console, viciously amuse." --Time "Girl meets boy, boy dumps girl...Zigman siphons off the tears and the curses and by alchemy converts them into laughter." --People "[A] funny tale of love found and lost...if a little laughter can help mend a broken heart or strengthen a healthy one, thenAnimal Husbandryshould be on reading lists of all the old cows and, for that matter, the old bulls out there, roaming the lonely grazing fields of love." --USA Today "[A] charming debut novel about a woman's quest to truly understand the mind of the male beast." --Vanity Fair "This is great fun, a dog-eared hoot. Zigman's second effort can't come too soon." --The Philadelphia Inquirer "It's clever, it's true-to-life, it's exaggerated, and let's face it, anything that can make you laugh about heartbreak should go on the life-sentence syllabus."--Newsday -->
