I had never read a Jennifer Weiner book before, but I was hearing her name come up on the Interwebz, so when I was at the library recently I decided to give her a try. The book I chose was called Goodnight Nobody, and I chose it because I liked the synopsis.
Without giving away major spoilers, the story is about a woman named Kate who moves to the suburbs with her husband after having been born and raised a New York City gal. She's a mother of three, and doesn't fit in with the upper-class neighbourhood Mommies. After one of these mothers is murdered, Kate dives in to solving the seemingly unsolveable mystery.
This book was really enjoyable to read. I liked the mystery, it wasn't predictable. The characters, Kate's best friend Janie in particular, are enjoyable and well-developed. It mixes Kate's earlier life in with her current predicament well too.
After reading this, I will definitely be giving Jennifer Weiner another shot. I recommend you check out Goodnight Nobody if you're looking for something to read next.
