Twenty-eight years old, drop-dead gorgeous and only occasionally employed, Maggie is a backing singer in a band called Whiskered Biscuit. She dreams of fame and fortune -- and of getting her dowdy big sister to stick to a skin-care regime.These two women with nothing in common but a childhood tragedy, shared DNA, and the same size feet, are about to learn that their family is more different than they ever imagined, and that they're more alike than they'd ever believe. The brilliant new novel by Jennifer Weiner, Who Do You Love, will be released in August 2015.

"Great book and great movie. "

Sonia Barajas ♡

"I loved this book for what it was: a fun romp into the chick lit genre. I really liked "Who Do You Love?" which is one of Jennifer Weiner's newer books, and I expected about the same from this, but I feel like this wasn't as strong of a story. I think I also had trouble rooting for the characters; I'm not sure if it's the power of the author's writing or the fact that I am an older sister, but I immediately connected with Rose and hated Maggie. The author definitely brought it all back around (the ending was beautiful!) but it was too little to late by that point for me. But I will definitely keep reading Jennifer Weiner's work, she's so good at understanding and putting into words the nuances of women's lives."

"Loved this book. I wish the movie hadn't cut out all of the good parts and the growth that her sister went through."
