About The Book

“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.
