- In Her Shoes
I would highly recommend this book or any book by Jennifer Weiner. It is a definite read for anyone who has a sister.

- Great Read! Jen Weiner Did it again!
I am currently on a misson to read all of Jennifer Weiner's work. I started with Good in bed ( slow start, but a great book) then on to Good Night Nobody ( I really connected with this book, loved it) Little Eathquakes ( my current Favorite) and just finished In her shoes. I really enjoyed, In her Shoes. I read this book in two days, as a busy working Mom that is nearly impossible. Take the plunge, read all JW's books! I am startting on Certain girls next!

Rose is the ugly-duckling who grew into a swan but doesn't quite realize it, while her younger sister, Maggie, has been the beautiful girl all her life who struggles with a learning disability and uses men to get by. The book takes such a personal look at the depth of two people that society fits into two typecasts: the older heavyweight, responsible woman in Rose versus the beautiful, spontaneous child-like qualities in Maggie. The themes can be recognized in every woman's life. We all know the girl who gets everything because she's beautiful but has deep rooted fears, or the woman who doesn't recognize her own spirit and beauty because she's ... Read More
