Hungry Heart: Adventures in Life, Love, and Writing

"Jennifer Weiner is many things: a bestselling author, a Twitter phenomenon, and an 'unlikely feminist enforcer' ... She's also a mom, a daughter, and a sister; a former rower and current clumsy yogini, a wife. a friend and a reality TV junkie. In her first essay collection, she takes the raw stuff of her personal life and spins into a collection of essays on modern womanhood as uproariously funny and moving as the best of Tina Fey, Fran Lebowitz, and Nora Ephron ... No subject is off-limits in these intimate and honest stories: sex, weight, envy, money, her mom's coming out of trhe closet, her estranged father's death. From lonely adolescence to modern childbirth to hearing her six-year-old daughter' say the f-word - fat - for the first time, Jennifer Weiner goes there, with the wit and candor that have endeared her to readers all over the world"--Publiosher's description.
