In some ways, these stories are better than Weiner's novels. Well written and succint, they capture the themes that we are used to but in a strong way that leaves the reader deeply touched in only a few pages.

An entertaining group of short stories exploring loss, love and the road (or guy) not taken. I don't enjoy short stories in general because I love character development and hate to see a character go before I know their full story - but I did enjoy these.
A great collection of short stories. It had one story that had Cannie and Bruce from Good in Bed!

An excellent collection of short stories that made me laugh out loud. I love Jennifer Weiner's writing and I felt like I knew the characters in these stories. She has such a vivid imagination. I especially love the part at the end where she describes each short story, tells you when and why she wrote it, etc. I suggest reading that before you read the story just to paint the background picture!
Endreaing, funny, sad... this book is great Weiner. Nice short stories to read. Nifkin appears, again!
I was sad that this wasn't nearly as good as her other books.. I had to force myself to finish it. :( Others really loved it though.
