Good in Bed
#1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Weiner brings to life an irresistibly funny and relatable heroine in the novel The Boston Globe called “funny, fanciful, extremely poignant, and rich with insight.”
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.

Terrific book! Definitely recommend!
By JamieLeigh8106
I felt some things to be exaggerated like how people either loved Nifkin or hated him, and how taking care of him was so straightforward when Cannie was in the hospital. The last hundred pages or so felt different from the beginning of the book, kind of like they were rushed or written but not reviewed as thoroughly.

I quit reading this book no less than 10 times. It did not grab me. There was so much character building… Unnecessary exploration of side stories. I got lost in the point of her story several times. As much as I wanted to just put it aside, I needed to know the ending. The last third of the book picked up and I poured through it quickly. I left the book feeling mediocre. I felt for Cannie. She was dealt a rough hand. But I didn’t love it. It’s certainly not a book I will recommend or reread.

I love this book! It’s not the first time I’ve read it and I’m sure it won’t be my last. I love how Jennifer Weiner writes, she does such a wonderful job of bringing her characters to life.
