Little Earthquakes by Jennifer Weiner
Fiction 2004
This is my favorite book by one of my favorite authors. Jennifer Weiner, who also wrote Good in Bed and In Her Shoes, writes the story of four women as they navigate one of life's most wonderful and perilous transitions: motherhood. It's a story of romance and friendship that will make you both laugh and cry. A story any woman can relate to and be touched by, mother or not.
