Love Jenifer Weiner ever since the first book I read...Good in Bed. This is a collection of short stories that I picked up in my travels.

From Amazon....Jennifer Weiner's talent shines like never before in this collection of short stories, following the tender, often hilarious, progress of love and relationships over the course of a lifetime.

We meet Marlie Davidow, home alone with her new baby late one night, when she wanders onto her ex's online wedding registry and wonders what if she had wound up with the guy not taken. We find Jessica Norton listing her beloved river-view apartment in the hope of winning her broker's heart. And we follow an unlikely friendship between two very different new mothers, and the choices that bring them together -- and pull them apart.

The Guy Not Taken demonstrates Weiner's amazing ability to create characters who "feel like they could be your best friend" (Janet Maslin) and to find hope and humor, longing and love in the hidden corners of our common experiences.

Interesting book. I didn't realize it was short stories until I started the book. I enjoyed the stories....had read Swim as a free book download.....but was frustrated in how short they were. I wanted to find out what happened next.

At the end of the book is "notes on stories". I would suggest reading them first. Some on the stories are based on her life so it was interesting to read the notes...

I am taking this book to our monthly bookcrossers meet up at Cravings - the second Saturday of every month- to pass on to the next reader.

I seem to be attracting short stories lately. Looking forward to when this book reaves the peak of my TBR Mountain range.
