I'm reading...little earthquakes

I've been on a bit of a Jennifer Weiner glom of late. (She wrote Good in Bed and In Her Shoes which is just one of my fave movies ever.) First up I read Little Earthquakes which is the story of four mums and the struggles and bliss that come with the first 9 months of their bub's lives and their friendship.

My littlest has just turned 9 months so it was so accidentally timely, but that's not why I loved it. This book was rich and delicate and feisty and real. Enjoyed it so much I dived into Certain Girls - the follow up to Good in Bed - which I'm having a great time with too.

In Jen's fabulous 'For Writers' page on her website, she also suggests - among other things - that if you want to get published you ought to read Harlequin novels. How can I not love her?!
