My Review
4☆ Funny, Compelling, Entertaining Family Saga.
Not Having It All is a laugh out loud story about Family Life, Bringing up Children, Marriage, Friendship and juggling work.
Bea and Kurt are juggling parenthood and work.
When Kurt has to go away for a while with work, leaving Bea and their four year old daughter Fran he starts to panic.
One thing springs into his head is how close Bea and her best friend Madeleine are.
He is convinced they are on the brink of having an affair!
Bea and Kurt both have their own worries and concerns it's a shame they don't communicate a bit more!
Bea is convinced she's a bad parent as Fran is learning to push her buttons and becoming a lil madam. Lol
Not only does she worry about Fran she worries if she has to drop any more working days because of Fran, she will no longer be respected in her field as a neuropsychologist.
It took me a little while to get used to the style of writing as the chapters alternate from Bea's Journal, Kurt's Journal, Katie the Au Pair, Madeleine's Therapy, and then back and forth emails from Bee and her sister Allie.
But they all flow together with ease.
It's actually nice to get each of their perspective, especially when it comes to Fran!
Not Having It All really is a compelling, light hearted and funny read.
The Characters are complex, well written and some are more relatable than others.
This is my first book by Jennie Ensor and it definitely won't be my last.
I really enjoyed her Wit and realism, the plot was entertaining, funny, full of angst and drama, lots of people will be able to relate to the storyline and characters predicaments.
If you are looking for an entertaining Women's Fiction / Family Saga, that will have you laughing out loud then you will really enjoy Not Having It All.
The perfect feel good Any time read!

Book Information
Neuroscientist Bea Hudson fears she is a bad mother and that her career will be thwarted by family life. When her husband suspects Bea of having an affair with her best friend, a chain of events is triggered, leading to a crisis in Bea’s life.
Bea Hudson, a neuropsychologist living in Godalming, is struggling to cope with the challenging behaviour of her obsessive husband Kurt and their disruptive four-year-old daughter Fran. On top of this, her boss is pressuring her to get results from her research. Bea has her work cut out.
Things come to a head when Kurt goes away on an extended business assignment. While sacking staff and drinking heavily, Kurt’s insecurities run amok and he becomes convinced that Bea’s close friend Madeleine is seducing his wife and unduly influencing his daughter.
Meanwhile, childless artist Madeleine sees her friend torn between the demands of work and offers to help with Fran. But when she reveals a startling desire to her unsympathetic therapist Mr Rowley, he advises her to focus on the attention of Colin, a man she met in a lift.
Can Bea survive the demands of her career and the turmoil in her marriage without having a breakdown? Can Madeleine survive Kurt’s anger and find happiness with Colin? And can love survive marriage, middle-age, alcohol and ambition?
Not Having It All is about a scientist torn between her stalling career and the demands of her family. With themes of trust, deception and obsession, it is a mercilessly playful take on modern friendships, relationships and family life.
