Mrs. Everything

I've been reading Jennifer Weiner for years. She's one of my go-to's for semi-serious but still fun "women's literature." (I hate that designation, for the record)

This latest book from her is next-level stuff. This is an absolutely fantastic novel that my only complaints about are 1. it ended and 2. I didn't write it.

The book tells the story of two sisters growing up in Detroit in the 50s and 60s and follows them throughout their lives. It is unabashedly feminist and smart and I kind of want to start reading it again right now, even though I just finished it an hour ago.

This is a buy-in-hardcover, re-read annually kind of book that I can't wait to run out and get a copy of when it comes out on June 11.

Disclosure: I was given an advance copy of this book by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
