<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Now in paperback--the "New York Times" bestseller from the acclaimed author of "Good in Bed." Funny and poignant, richly detailed and wrenchingly real, "In Her Shoes" will speak to anyone who has endured the bonds of big--or little--sisterhood, and dreamed of trying something else on for size.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>From Jennifer Weiner comes a story of two sisters with nothing in common but a love for shoes learn they are more alike than they thought possible.</b> <p/>Meet Rose Feller, a thirty-year-old high-powered attorney with a secret passion for romance novels. She has an exercise regime she's going to start next week, and she dreams of a man who will slide off her glasses, gaze into her eyes, and tell her she's beautiful. She also dreams of getting her fantastically screwed-up, semi-employed little sister to straighten up and fly right. <p/>Meet Rose's sister, Maggie. Twenty-eight years old and drop-dead gorgeous. Although her big-screen stardom hasn't progressed past her left hip's appearance in a Will Smith video, Maggie dreams of fame and fortune -- and of getting her big sister on a skin-care regimen. <p/>These two women, who claim to have nothing in common but a childhood tragedy, DNA, and the same size feet, are about to learn that they're more alike than they'd ever imagined. Along the way, they'll encounter a diverse cast of characters -- from a stepmother who's into recreational Botox to a disdainful pug with no name. They'll borrow shoes and clothes and boyfriends, and eventually make peace with their most intimate enemies -- each other.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><i>People</i> Weiner's vivid characterizations and her light touch with heavy topics make this follow-up...like spending time with an understanding friend who has a knack for being great company.<br><br><i>Philadelphia Inquirer</i> If chick lit is indeed a genre, Weiner is creating a smarter, funnier subspecies...[She] is a sharp observer of the frustrations of blood ties.<br><br><i>The Washington Post</i> Irresistible...<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Jennifer Weiner is the #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of eighteen books, including <i>Big Summer</i>, <i>Mrs. Everything</i>, <i>Good in Bed</i>, and an essay collection, <i>Hungry Heart: Adventures in Life, Love, and Writing</i>.
