Anyone read Jennifer Weiner?

[pkstew2]

I just stumbled across her for the first time today while reading Redbook (don't laugh - my MIL recycles it to me)....she wrote this little story...I'm hooked Any recommendations of her novels that you loved? I need some new reading material. Thanks!

I haven't read anything of hers, but Andrew has. He said Good in Bed and In Her Shoes are good. He also recommends checking out Jennifer Crusie since he thinks their writing styles are similar. He says Jennifer Crusie's books have a bit more action and humor.

Oh, thanks, lol, now I have to check out August issue to find out what happens I've only just heard of Good in Bed, thought about picking it up to read... Maybe I will now.

I <3 Jennifer Weiner

I've read..
In Her Shoes (way better than the movie)
Good In Bed
Little Earthquakes
Goodnight Nobody
Certain Girls

and I just got Fly Away Home but haven't started it.
I read Best Friends Forever on Kindle (need to finish it) and it was ok so far..not my fave though

I'm also a big fan. Good In Bed is really good. I also just picked up her new one. It's very light reading, but I like it.

I've read a few of hers as well and enjoyed them

[pkstew2]

Thanks gals! I am in dire need of light reading

I've read 2 of her books, I forget which two LOL...but they were good, I would recommend her!

I've read Good In bed and I liked it.

I will, however, second the recommendation of Jennifer Cruisie. I love her. She reminds me somewhat of Janet Evanovich.

I've read all the same ones as Meg (In Her Shoes, Good In Bed, Little Earthquakes, Goodnight Nobody, Certain Girls) and loved all of them. I downloaded the new one - Fly Away Home - on my Kindle yesterday and am already about 25% through. It's a pretty light read and I'm enjoying it. I'd recommend it if you enjoyed any of the above.

[JenTapler]

On another note, I just finished a REALLY good book for my book club - it's not quite as light as Jennifer Weiner, but I LOVED it. The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton. I've read another by her, the House at Riverton, that I also really liked. But the Forgotten Garden was better. Seriously. Couldn't put it down.

Isn't she the one that wrote "The Devil Wears Prada"? I've read that one - it was (as usually happens) better than the movie!

I am 80% through Certain Girls and have really enjoyed it--though it makes me not in a rush to have a tween/teen girl lol!

No, that is Lauren Weisberger


I have read all but the last two (Fly Away Home and Best Friends Forever)

I recommend reading them in the order she wrote them, but that is just me In Her Shoes was definitely MUCH better than the movie

Thanks Jen that Forgotten Garden looks good. And thanks gals for the recommendation of Jennifer Crusie - her books look like alot of fun
