Little Earthquakes: A Novel

by Jennifer Weiner

Washington Square Press | June 28, 2005 | Trade Paperback

Jennifer Weiner''s richest, wittiest, most true-to-life novel yet tells the story of three very different women as they navigate one of life''s most wonderful and perilous transitions: the journay of new motherhood.

Becky is a plump, sexy chef who has a wonderfull husband and baby girl, a restaurant that received a citywide acclaim -- and the mother-in-law from hell. Kelly is an event planner who''s struggling to balance her work and motherhood while dealing with unemployed husband who seems content to channel-surf for eight hours a day. Ayinde''s basketball superstar husband breaks her trust at her most vulnerable moment, putting their new family even more in the public eye. Then, there''s Lia, a Philadelphia native who has left her Hollywood career behind, along with her husband, and a tragic secret to start her life all over again.

From prenatal yoga to postbirth sex, Little Earthquakes is a frank, funny, fiercely perceptive take on the comedies and tragedies of love and marriage.

Another good read

Having been totally consumed this summer with chick literature, I have to admit that some are really good and some are real duds. This is not a dud. I quite enjoyed this book and found it to be both engaging and moving. Not typical chick lit fare - more of a story and coming together of four women from very different backgrounds because of their pregnancies and new born children. I'm not a mom myself so don't relate to that part of the story - but the relationships are really good, and Weiner does a great job of developing the characters. Worth the read. Another really good book is Enchanted Inc.
