Publisher Description

"Beautifully written, a highly literate story of friendship, parenthood, and every other kind of love you can imagine." —Marisa de los Santos, author of Love Walked In

When Jill becomes both pregnant and single at the end of one spring semester, she and her two closest friends plunge into an experiment in tri-parenting, tri-schooling, and trihabitating as grad students in Seattle. Naturally, everything goes wrong, but in ways no one sees coming. Janey Duncan narrates the adventure of this modern family with hilarity and wisdom and shows how three lives are forever changed by (un)cooperative parenting, literature, and a tiny baby named Atlas who upends and uplifts their entire world. In this sparkling and wise debut novel, The Atlas of Love, Frankel's unforgettable heroines prove that home is simply where the love is.

Atlas of love

It was ok I found myself skimming through the book there were parts that were interesting and parts I found a bit mundane

DBecker607 ,

Engaging

An modern moral story about post grad life and a sort of "St Elmo's Fire " crew of friends who stick together. Rings true about grad school. Not all of the main characters are explicable and it is a little stereotypical. A slow read at first but hang in there.
