Over the course of 18 books that have sold more than 11 million copies, Jennifer Weiner has returned again and again to the heart of women’s lives, to the power of female friendships, surviving our pasts and confronting our futures – and won herself years on The New York Times bestseller list with her sharp observations about characters who feel entirely familiar.
