Good In Bed - Jennifer Weiner (Very Good)
A close friend recommended this book to me. This is a good pick-me-up book. I do not remember the details of the book since I read this book about four years ago. The main character - Cannie Shapiro - reminds you of Bridget Jones. Just like Bridget Jones, Cannie is funny and sassy and she's dieting. Cannie is considerably overweight. She is a realistic portrayal of a large woman in a size 4 world. Despite her girth, Cannie has her life fairly together - she is a successful writer, has close friends and a supportive (if offbeat) family. She has recently broken it off with her boyfriend of three years but she is comfortable with the break since it was her decision. But then he, Bruce, does the unthinkable, the unimaginable - he publishes an article called "Loving a Larger Woman" in a national magazine. And everyone who knows Cannie (and even some she has yet to meet) know the piece is about her and her Lewinski-esque physique.
According to me, this book holds an appeal to women. This is a book to read over tea and scones - so sit back, relax and enjoy the book.
