    I liked it. You see Maggie grow up and Rose move on with her life. You even have characters from GOOD IN BED come into the story. The movie, while not exactly like the book, was good also.

    I was skeptical of this book because I thought it would be too "girly" for me, but I loved it! The ending was a little predictable, but the relationships in the book made up for it! Having an older sister of my own that is similar to me in many ways, but yet different in many ways made the book more personal also!

    The ending was so touching. I'll admit it I cried a little bit.

    For every girl who has ever thought their sister had the better life. In this book you learn that may not always be true. In the end you learn that everyone is just the same and we all have our vices.

    This is my favorite book of Weiner's. I loved both of the main characters and loved watching their various relationships with other people and between themselves develope.

    I really liked this book! If you've only seen the movie, I highly recommend reading this! The book has MANY different parts/twists than the movie. I read the book first and was disappointed in the movie.

    Rose has always taken care of her sister Maggie, until Maggie does the unthinkable. The complexity of family relationships is explored as Maggie and Rose try to reconcile. Well written story about sisters and family. Will appeal to fans of Chick Lit genre, but depth of the story should ensure some cross genre appeal.

    This is a great book. I will admit the movie was pretty darn good too!
    This is about sisters and family. If you haven't read this one yet, you've got to soon.
