The Secret Diary of a Pregnant Bengali: Funny, charming and unputdownable, it's the laugh-out-loud romcom you need

The brown Bridget Jones is pregnant...


One couple. Nine months. Lots of decisions and even more opinions…


Welcome to my life as a pregnant Bengali lady.


I went through the arranged marriage process. I met a boy, married him, then learned how to live with him in a whole new city.


Life has been an adventure so far, and this might be the biggest yet. I’m going to be a mum!


But with a baby on the horizon and an unexpected curve ball, can my glass half empty nature survive the craziest nine months of my life?


The Secret Diary of a Pregnant Bengali sees our heroine face her greatest challenge yet, negotiating raging hormones, NCT classes, and a whole host of Bengali old wives’ tales. Exploring race, identity and belonging, former journalist Halima Khatun’s acerbic protagonist will have you laughing and crying.
