Certain Girls (Abridged): A Novel Audiobook

" deze zal ik later zeker door mijn tienerdochter laten lezen "

" So far this was my least favorite of hers. Easy read and liked it but was into like I have been with the rest of hers. "

" I borrowed this pink covered chick lit shamefest from the lbirary. And read the whole thing. "

" I'd heard of author Jennifer Weiner, and thought she wrote trashy novels, not that anything is wrong with that. But this story was much richer than that. I really enjoyed reading this book. "

" Hmmm. This is the first Jennifer Weiner book that I've read. Despite its low ratings on Amazon, I still gave this book a shot and spent a few days reading it, in which I think is a mistake. I can say that Weiner is a good story teller. However, the story is not good. I can't relate to the characters, I don't feel for them. Generally, I didn't like it. "

" Needed a fun read. I liked a couple of her other books better, but I did enjoy this mother / daughter story. "

" Love Jennifer Weiner's writing style. She sucks you in with descriptive sentences that flow together seamlessly. "

" Amazing continuation of Good in Bed ... "

" i had to pick this one up after reading good in bed. I laughed, I gasped, and I cried with this book. its written from cannie's point of view and alternates to joy's in every other chapter. "

" Not as satisfying as Good in Bed, but it was nice to see the characters again and it had me laughing aloud as well as welling up with tears with every turn of the page.... what Weiner seems to do best, and that's what I loved. "

" A nice follow up to Good in Bed, Certain Girls follows Cannie Shapiro as she negotiates life with a tween girl, a loving husband, and a writing career. While not as good as Good in Bed, this novel was a very enjoyable read, and I really liked the update on Cannie's life. "

" This was a wonderful sequel to Good In Bed. Cannie is a lovable character that I can connect with. "

" I love Jennifer Weiner's writing style along with her sense of humor. I was disappointed in the ending and that's all I have to say! "

" I read her first book and I thought it was so cute. This is a sequel to Good in Bed. You don't have to have read the first to pick this one up though! "

" Not as good as some of her others. A bit slow. Still worth reading I thought. "

" I did not like the end of this book. Her boyfriend left her when she was pregnant with her daughter, now her husband dies after they have gottan a surogate to have their child. "

" I was ecstatic when I saw I could read more about Cannie, my literary BFF. I love how the plot ties in with the first book. The ending broke my heart! "

" Another great book by Jennifer Weiner, although they are all getting a bit too much alike one another. "

" Very entertaining continuation of In Her Shoes, especially amusing due to Jewish inferences "

" listening to on Audio CD. Hopefully won't be too scratched "

" Great lite summer beach read! I enjoyed Cannie and Joy once again-I hope that we will see more of them. "

" Certain Girls is the sequel to Weiner's book Good in Bed. I actually listened to it on CD on my way home to Georgia from Texas. It was great. Much better than the first. I laughed-I cried. Loved it! "

" I enjoyed this book. Nice to get more of Cannie. However, Cannie's over protectiveness drove me a little crazy. I spent a lot of the book wanting to scream just talk to each other!! I really enjoy reading Jennifer Weiner. Easy to get into and wonderful flow! "

" Typically chick-lit. A quick, easy read, but missing depth. "

" This was my least favorite of Weiner's books. Did not like it at all. "

" This is the sequel to "Good in Bed." This book is almost just as good as "Good in Bed." Without giving away the ending, I cried at the end. That is RARE for me to do. "

" Had high expectations and was disappointed "

" Can't remember exactly when I read this - late 2010/early 2011. I liked the evolution of the mother/daugher relationship & cried at the end. "

" Should have just stopped at the first book. "

" Amazing continuation of Good in Bed ... "

" I expected this book to follow a certain formula about mothers and teen daughters. And it did, to an degree. There is a real kicker at the end of the book which brings a deeper richness to the book. "

" This book should probably have 4 stars, I enjoyed almost the entire thing. I took away a star because of the ending...honestly, WHY?! Is the moral here that fat people don't deserve happiness?! Oh man I so hated that ending. "

" I think I liked this one even more than the first in this series. Cannie has her hands full with her teenaged daughter in this one. A fun read with a good theme. "

" Oh my, this is a sequel that doesn't live up to the first book. I loved Cannie in Good in Bed but here she's less interesting and the plot seems to slog on. I also thought the daughter didn't quite hit the right notes - teenagers are hard to write about and Weiner didn't quite get it with this one. "

" Got about a quarter of the way into the book during a dull day at work, but decided to give up after finding that I was not at all interested in Cannie or Joy's narratives. There was something about Good in Bed that I loved but was just missing from Certain Girls. "

" I love the character of Cannie Sharpo. I definantly understand her character from Good in Bed, but there is something about how she has changed that I can no longer relate to in this book. "

" Fun, quick-read beach book. Written in Weiner's easy-going conversational style that makes you feel like your friend is telling you a story. Good entertainment. "

" Enjoyed but wasn't as good as Good in Bed. "

" It was good but the ending made me mad. I definatly enjoyed the first book, Good in Bed, more than this one. "

" This book was comical and held my attention but I felt the ending was lacking. I was disappointed in the turn the story took and am not sure why the author felt the need to go in that direction. I thought the focus in the beginning of the story should have been followed through to the end. "
