Readers fell in love with Cannie Shapiro, the smart, sharp-tongued, bighearted heroine of Good in Bed, who found her happy ending after navigating her mother's coming out, her father's absence, and her ex-boyfriend's public revelations about their past. Now, Cannie is back. Following the success of her debut novel—a fictionalized, highly sexualized version of her life—she retreated from the limelight to write science fiction under a pseudonym. Happily married to the charming diet doctor Peter Krushelevansky, Cannie enjoys a predictably fulfilling life filled with knitting at her daughter Joy's drama rehearsals, volunteering at the library, and attending yoga classes with her best friend Samantha. As preparations for Joy's bat mitzvah begin, Cannie's world seems perfect. However, Joy's discovery of Cannie's earlier novel forces her to confront unsettling truths about her own conception, secrets her mother had kept hidden. When Peter expresses a desire to have another baby, the family must reevaluate their past, future, and the essence of true happiness. With Weiner's signature humor and keen observations of modern life, this story explores love, loss, and the enduring bonds of family.

The brilliantly funny and heartwarming New York Times bestseller about a young woman who stumbles, then fights to build a new life after the death of her husband. 36-year-old Sophie Stanton loses her young husband to cancer. In an age where women are expected to be high-achievers, Sophie desperately wants to be a good widow?a graceful, composed Jackie Kennedy kind of widow. Alas, Sophie is more of a Jack Daniels kind. Downing cartons of ice-cream for breakfast, breaking down in the produce section of supermarkets, showing up to work in her bathrobe and bunny slippers?soon she?s not only lost her husband, but her job and her waistline as well. In a desperate attempt to reinvent her life, Sophie moves to Ashland, Oregon. But instead of the way it?s depicted in the movies, with a rugged Sam Shepherd kind of guy finding her, Sophie finds herself in the middle of Lucy-and-Ethel madcap adventures with a darkly comic edge. Still, Sophie proves that with enough humor and chutzpah, it is possible to have life after loss.
