    Jusqu'à présent, tout allait bien pour Candace Shapiro. Vingt-huit ans, trop de rondeurs mais beaucoup de charme et suffisamment d'esprit pour s'être imposée comme journaliste. Elle avait même fini par accepter que papa ne revienne jamais, que maman soit amoureuse d'une femme et que Lucy, sa petite sœur, danse les seins nus pour arrondir ses fins de mois. Mais le jour où elle découvre sa vie sexuelle relatée par le menu dans un grand mensuel féminin, ce jour-là... tout déraille. Le responsable de cette délicate attention ? Bruce, son ex, qui, à l'évidence, vit lui aussi de sa plume en confiant à l'Amérique tout entière le détail de ses amours avec une femme " différente " ! D'abord furieuse, Candace a le choix : sombrer dans la dépression... ou rebondir et donner raison à celles qui pensent que, oui, on peut être heureuse sans avoir à mincir ! " [...] ce roman, extrêmement drôle, nous ressemble. ", Psychologies.

  2. 1

    Weiner's witty, original, fast-moving debut features a lovable heroine, a solid cast, snappy dialogue and a poignant take on life's priorities. For twenty-eight years, things have been tripping along nicely for Cannie Shapiro. Sure, her mother has come charging out of the closet, and her father has long since dropped out of her world. But she loves her friends, her rat terrier, Nifkin, and her job as pop culture reporter for The Philadelphia Examiner. She's even made a tenuous peace with her plus-size body. But the day she opens up a national women's magazine and sees the words "Loving a Larger Woman" above her ex-boyfriend's byline, Cannie is plunged into misery...and the most amazing year of her life. From Philadelphia to Hollywood and back home again, she charts a new course for herself: mourning her losses, facing her past, and figuring out who she is and who she can become.

    Readers fell in love with Cannie Shapiro, the smart, sharp-tongued, bighearted heroine of Good in Bed who found her happy ending after her mother came out of the closet, her father fell out of her life, and her ex-boyfriend started chronicling their ex-sex life in the pages of a national magazine. Now Cannie's back. After her debut novel -- a fictionalized (and highly sexualized) version of her life -- became an overnight bestseller, she dropped out of the public eye and turned to writing science fiction under a pseudonym. She's happily married to the tall, charming diet doctor Peter Krushelevansky and has settled into a life that she finds wonderfully predictable -- knitting in the front row of her daughter Joy's drama rehearsals, volunteering at the library, and taking over-forty yoga classes with her best friend Samantha. As preparations for Joy's bat mitzvah begin, everything seems right in Cannie's world. Then Joy discovers the novel Cannie wrote years before and suddenly finds herself faced with what she thinks is the truth about her own conception -- the story her mother hid from her all her life. When Peter surprises his wife by saying he wants to have a baby, the family is forced to reconsider its history, its future, and what it means to be truly happy. Radiantly funny and disarmingly tender, with Weiner's whip-smart dialogue and sharp observations of modern life, Certain Girls is an unforgettable story about love, loss, and the enduring bonds of family.
