Synopsis A woman named Cannie Shapiro is (like the author) a columnist for a Philadelphia newspaper. Life is good until her ex-husband starts writing his own column, for a hip magazine, called "Good in Bed," in which he details the intimate truths of their relationship, including his opinion of her plus-size body. Finally determined to lose some weight, Cannie discovers instead that she's pregnant--an unforeseen complication that rocks her world even further.

Industry Reviews "Weiner's voice rings true as she flouts conventional wisdom about what women want. An unpredictable and impressive debut." Kirkus Reviews (03/01/2001)
"Pure women's escape fiction, Weiner's first novel leans heavily on self-deprecating shtick, hip cultural reference, and improbable plotting. But it has a believable, even endearing leading character and an underlying melancholy that are its saving graces." Philadelphia Inquirer - Rebecca Pepper Sinkler (05/06/2001)
