Product Description:

For twenty-eight years, things have been tripping along nicely for Cannie Shapiro. Sure, her mother has come charging out of the closet, and her father has long since dropped out of her world. But she loves her friends, her rat terrier, Nifkin, and her job as pop culture reporter for The Philadelphia Examiner. She's even made a tenuous peace with her plus-size body.

But the day she opens up a national women's magazine and sees the words "Loving a Larger Woman" above her ex-boyfriend's byline, Cannie is plunged into misery...and the most amazing year of her life. From Philadelphia to Hollywood and back home again, she charts a new course for herself: mourning her losses, facing her past, and figuring out who she is and who she can become.

Customer Reviews: Average Rating:

Rating : - Some parallels to the movie "My Best Friend's Wedding"
This is not exactly a bad book per se, but I would like to point out that it doesn't seem to be an 'original' novel. For example, as I was reading this novel, I couldn't help but see flavors that were reminiscent of the movie "My Best Friend's Wedding" (1997), starring Julia Roberts, Rupert Everett, and Dermot Mulroney. However, these familiar flavors may be obscure enough that they may be missed by the average reader. For example, the protagonist in the book has a friend that is a food critic from which she occasionally gets relationship advice from (Julia Roberts is a food critic in "My Best Friend's Wedding" and gets relationship advice from a friend who sometimes comes along with her on her restaurant reviews). In addition, there are passages in the book that are similar to actual scenes in the movie I'm seeing parallels to. For instance, about a third of the way through the book, after the protagonist has been regretting her decision to break it up with her boyfriend and is desperately seeking to make amends, the protagonist has a conversation with her mother in which her mother helps her come to the realization that she is doing all of the chasing to get the relationship mended while her ex-boyfriend is not (pp. 119)--not much different than the conversation that Julia Robert's character gets into with Rupert Everett's character in "My Best Friend's Wedding", when Julia's character is chasing after her best friend (Dermot Mulroney) after getting caught kissing him by her best friend's fiancee (Cameron Diaz). Furthermore, the overall premise of the two storylines are quite similiar--the protagonist is trying to win back or win over someone they've come to realize that they love. These are a few parallels between this book and that movie to name a few. If the reader doesn't mind these similarities (again, these similarities may be obscure enough to go unnoticed) and can push back these thoughts well enough, then this book is quite entertaining in itself. Happy reading :-)
