the other book review

Can­nie is a ‘larger woman’ and the whole freak­ing world knows it because her ex-boyfriend Bruce explained her body so fully in his col­umn for the Moxie mag­a­zine.
Can­nie just wanted a lit­tle break in her rela­tion­ship with Bruce, but he seems to have moved on. Can­nie is mis­er­able. This is not how she ima­gened her break-up to end.
But Can­nie is a fighter and wants to make the best of it. So she signs in for a test at the hos­pi­tal with an exper­i­men­tal drug to help her lose spare pounds…and sits at home wait­ing for Bruce to call…not pathetic at all, right?
When Bruce’s father dies they see, and espe­cially feel, each other, what later proved to be the last time, at his parent’s house. And from that moment on Cannie’s life does a 180.
Will she con­tinue the be brave, will she keep going to the hos­pi­tal and will she really get over Bruce?

Weiner proved her­self once again to me. She really knows how to write humoris­tic chik­lit with the hard real­ity woven through. You will laugh, you will cry, but most of all, you will not be able to put the book down once you started. Three times hooray for Jen­nifer Weiner.
