The most unlikeable characters ever. All of them.
I'm generally not a fan of Jennifer Weiner's writing. I've read most of her books and they've always felt pretty meh to me, but she's popular among my peers so I always give her a try. I had a feeling this one would be different for me, though. The subject matter - addiction - is a topic that hits close to home. Weiner did a great job of making the protagonist's journey a realistic one, which I can appreciate. I liked all of the characters and was pleasantly surprised that everything wasn't magically better at the end.
I just didn't like this book. It seeemed so slow moving, and kind of an annoying main character.

Seriously one of Jennifer Weiner's best books in years!! Brilliantly written and heartfelt. It made me cry, and it's been a while since a book made me do that!
I had a really hard time deciding if I really liked this one or not. There were moments I couldn’t put it down and others were I could not care less. Having had many addicts super close in my life, I felt some of this was well done and some was cookie cutter garbage that people think is true. I don’t know, I didn’t hate it…but I wouldn’t say a must read either.
Eh, this was good, not great. Jen Lancaster said it was her best book yet and I do not agree :)
One of her better books dealing with a very real issue.
Excellent story and well told. I love Weiner's stories of real life problems.
