Certain Girls

I finished listening to Certain Girls by Jennifer Weiner a few days ago. I just recently discovered Jennifer Weiner's books at a used bookstore. In my usual manner, I bought one of her novels, read it, and went back to buy many more. Thus far I was thoroughly enjoyed reading about unique female characters in the modern world. Certain Girls, the sequel to Good in Bed, brings the reading into the life of Cannie as her daughter is coming of age. This book never engaged me as her earlier books did. I was unable to connect with any of the characters as I had in the past. If you are looking for a quick read for your summer vacation, this is a good book to bring along. I will definitely continue to read Ms. Weiner's novels in the future.
