A savvy tale… told with equal parts love and longing-whether it be for a partner, a purpose, or a family., Ruth is a multidimensional heroine, and Weiner gives her real heart and soul. Readers will root for her to get everything she ever wanted-not to settle for the next best thing. This is contemporary women's fiction at its finest., Weiner is a chick-lit writer with chops-and she puts them to expert use in this funny, feel-good tale., A knockout. Perfect comic timing meets effortless dialogue and an engaging plot…. Enjoy your place on top of the lit world, Jennifer Weiner. You've more than made it., Weiner is coming off a year in Hollywood, and she puts the experience to excellent use in this utterly engaging story of a showrunner who, after six years of slogging, finally gets a series on the air, only to discover that her troubles are only beginning-meddling studio execs, egomaniacal actors and one crushable but unobtainable boss.

Synopsis
"You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll want to read it again." -- TheSkimm "Fiercely funny, powerfully smart, and remarkably brave." --Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild A hilarious and candid essay collection from New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Weiner that explores everything from motherhood to grief. Jennifer Weiner is many things: a bestselling author, a Twitter phenomenon, and an "unlikely feminist enforcer" ( The New Yorker ). She's also a mom, a daughter, and a sister, a clumsy yogini, and a reality-TV devotee. In this "unflinching look at her own experiences" ( Entertainment Weekly ), Jennifer fashions tales of modern-day womanhood as uproariously funny and moving as the best of Nora Ephron and Tina Fey. No subject is off-limits in these intimate and honest essays: sex, weight, envy, money, her mother's coming out of the closet, her estranged father's death. From lonely adolescence to hearing her six-year-old daughter say the F word--fat--for the first time, Jen dives into the heart of female experience, with the wit and candor that have endeared her to readers all over the world., "Generous and entertaining." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) Finalist for the PEN/Diamonstein-Spielvogel Award for the Art of the Essay * Nominated for "Best Memoir & Autobiography" by Goodreads Choice Awards 2016 * Named a "Best Book of the Year" by New York Post "You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll want to read it again." -- TheSkimm "I'm mad Jennifer's Weiner's first book of essays is as wonderful as her fiction. You will love this book and wish she was your friend." --Mindy Kaling, author of Why Not Me? "Fiercely funny, powerfully smart, and remarkably brave." --Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild Jennifer Weiner is many things: a bestselling author, a Twitter phenomenon, and an "unlikely feminist enforcer" ( The New Yorker ). She's also a mom, a daughter, and a sister, a clumsy yogini, and a reality-TV devotee. In this "unflinching look at her own experiences" ( Entertainment Weekly ), Jennifer fashions tales of modern-day womanhood as uproariously funny and moving as the best of Nora Ephron and Tina Fey. No subject is off-limits in these intimate and honest essays: sex, weight, envy, money, her mother's coming out of the closet, her estranged father's death. From lonely adolescence to hearing her six-year-old daughter say the F word--fat--for the first time, Jen dives into the heart of female experience, with the wit and candor that have endeared her to readers all over the world., From the #1 New York Times bestselling author and "one of the biggest names in popular fiction" ( USA TODAY ) comes a collection of personal essays as uproariously funny and moving as the best of Nora Ephron and David Sedaris. In her forty-something years, bestselling novelist Jennifer Weiner has gone from feeling like an outsider in her picturesque Connecticut hometown ("a Lane Bryant outtake in an Abercrombie & Fitch catalogue"), to being a Princeton graduate, to a successful newspaper reporter in Philadelphia, and, eventually, a mother, novelist, and occasional Hollywood name. Weiner's hilarious and insightful chronicles of her life cover everything from her many ( many ) bad dates to her mother coming out of the closet at age 54 to casting a goat in her sitcom. Jennifer pairs her trademark sharp humor with disarming candor and an extraordinary eye for detail in this, her first nonfiction work. No subject is off limits, and that includes hearing her daughter use the F-word-fat-for the first time, and learning from the police that her estranged father had died in his girlfriend's bathroom. Crazy-funny and deeply touching by turns, this collection willprove that the voice behind Jennifer Weiner's beloved novels is every bit as endearing, smart, and quirky as it is in real life.
