(This recording contains explicit content.) Philadelphia author Jennifer Weiner writes novels and stories full of wit, spunk, and sharp insights into human nature. Her 2002 novel, In Her Shoes, was adapted into a critically acclaimed film starring Cameron Diaz and Shirley MacLaine; and her other books including Little Earthquakes, Goodnight Nobody, and The Guy Not Taken have all topped nationwide bestseller lists. Kirkus Review describes Certain Girls, the sequel to the smash debut, Good in Bed as "a touching examination of both the comic and tragic moments that mark the mother-daughter relationship."
