Certain Girls by Jennifer Weiner
4.0
Jennifer Weiner has been my most read author so far in 2022, and Certain Girls was the 5th novel that I have read by her this year. I think it is safe to say that I am a big Jennifer Weiner fan.
Certain Girls is a sequel to Weiner's first book, Good in Bed, but Weiner wrote it seven years later, and the novel takes place thirteen years later. Throughout the book the narration switches between the main character, Cannie, and her thirteen-year-old daughter, Joy. Cannie is just as quick-witted and hilarious as she was in Good In Bed- her humour had me laughing out loud many times. I found myself immersed in the characters' lives, and excited to see what would happen next. There was quite a shock in the plot near the end that changed everyone's perspectives.
I highly recommend this one!
