About this product

Product Information

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Weiner, a novel that's "funny, fanciful, extremely poignant and rich with insight" ( The Boston Globe ). For twenty-eight years, things have been tripping along nicely for Cannie Shapiro. Sure, her mother has come charging out of the closet, and her father has long since dropped out of her world. But she loves her friends, her rat terrier, Nifkin, and her job as pop culture reporter for The Philadelphia Examiner . She's even made a tenuous peace with her plus-size body. But the day she opens up a national women's magazine and sees the words "Loving a Larger Woman" above her ex-boyfriend's byline, Cannie is plunged into misery...and the most amazing year of her life. From Philadelphia to Hollywood and back home again, she charts a new course for herself: mourning her losses, facing her past, and figuring out who she is and who she can become.

  • Reached down deep and claimed my soul!

    Wow! Where to begin... I was in Wal-Mart and saw this title staring back at me. I read the synopsis on the back cover and knew I HAD to read it! I also knew I could find it @ half.com for a lot less. I did. I LOVED this book and have since passed it on to my closest friend. My only instruction? "Pass it on!" To be a plus size woman in a size 2 society is difficult at best and can make you suicidal at worst. I'm not EVEN kidding! To see someone tackle this subject as adeptly as Jennifer Weiner is profoundly gratifying! There is one other thing though... Whenever I read something like this, I always wonder how they will address their work if they should ever conquer their demons and become a size 2? I worry about that myself, as an author. If I write about what is important to ...

  • Oh...I can relate to this one!

    Twenty-eight year old journalist, Cannie Shapiro, has recently taken a 'break' with her boyfriend of three years. The opening pages of the novel depict Cannie's reaction when she finds that the ex, Bruce, has written a national magazine article (complete with intimate details) about loving Cannie, a larger woman. The article spurs on Cannie's desire to lose weight and ultimately get Bruce back. Uncomfortable yet hilarious situation after situation (some involving Bruce) occurs, even ending in Cannie making an unexpected connection and friendship with celebrity Maxi Ryder. All of this while Cannie deals with a troubled childhood and insecurities of her body. The writing was fantastic, the characters endearing and I don't think that Jennifer Weiner could have created a more entertaining ...

  • Jennifer Weiner--Entertaining Author

    After seeing the movie, "In Her Shoes," I decided I wanted to read more books by this author. I purchased one of her four books in a book store, loved it very much, so I went on to E-Bay to purchase two more. "Good in Bed" was my least favorite book by this author, but after getting about halfway through, I decided that it was an excellent read after all. It probably is very much realistic in depicting the love life of a plus size young woman trying to cope with her body image in a world where "skinny" is in.

  • Good in bed by Jennifer Weiner -excellent reading!

    I got this book off of ebay. the reason I picked it was because the person selling it said this was similar to the writings of Jane Green. I love Green's work, and I must said that Jennifer Weiner is just as good. This is a great story about someone that has struggled with her weight, her gay mother and life in general, but it's funny- this book is awesome, and one that i would consider reading again. Like I said, if you like Jane Green, you will love Jennifer Weiners work too. I hope to read more from her soon! Enjoy the book!
