Just because you want a baby, it does not give you the right to trick a man into ejaculating inside of you.
There is nothing worse (to me) than a woman forcing a man to do something he doesn't want to do. Juliet, Naked was an OK novel about a woman named Annie that can't seem to tame her boyfriend, Duncan. Duncan is so obsessed with a rock star, Tucker Crowe. There is a film under the same name. It wasn't until Annie meets Crowe that really grinds my gears!

I really enjoyed reading this book, but I came out feeling a bit empty. The ending is lazy, and there's not too much to think about afterwards. It's a pretty honest depiction of an old, long relationship. Tucker was written pretty well, too. I think perhaps the lack of mystery, confusion, and depth to the writing left me wondering what sort of novel this would qualify as, but to be honest.. there wasn't anything I learned or took from reading it. It's just a fun, light read for moments when you need that.
