Interesting View of a Family August 19, 2008 Think Jennifer Weiner's books are usually very entertaining, this one is too, perhaps more serious than her others. The teenager in this book is certainly an "eye opener" for young moms. As a mom of three teenagers, Weiner is right on the money - albeit this is a very spoiled one.
This is a quick read, makes you chuckle and also value your own children and personal situation.
Good, hated the end August 18, 2008 I liked this book, it consumed me for 2 days until I was finished. I did however HATE the end and subsequently threw it on the floor when I finished it like a spoiled brat. I do not want to be sad when I finish a good book.
good follow up August 18, 2008 im not sure why so many people thought cannie would be the same person after a decade of growth and the birth of her child. these are life-altering events and time periods - think of the difference between when you're 18 and when you're 28. big change. i thought cannie's personality rang true and her concerns, while sometimes silly, were accurate with those of any protective mother. i enjoyed reading about her all these years after good in bed and thought weiner did a good job with this sequel. my main complaint is that the story drags for much of the middle, but that is a small complaint for a chance to get to revisit such an enjoyable character.
Not bad August 18, 2008 Not a bad follow up to Good In Bed. Something towards the ends happens that I didn't think was necessary to the story and it would have changed how I felt about it. I don't want to give it away though...
Weiner is always a solid writer August 18, 2008 This is another very good book by Jennifer Weiner. I had to give 4 stars because it is, in my opinion, not as good as all her others including the short stories. I wish this author didn't get labeled "chick lit" because her writing is far too good for that.
