Fascinating tale of what could happen in the final period of the USA as it's known today. Based on the belief that America's best days are in the past, and serious changes are coming. It's actually not the "final days" of America, but the final days of America as it has existed for decades. Most of America survives, but the President, his advisers, & Congress are faced with choices never imagined. This book will naturally appeal mostly to those who believe that the USA in its current form, is heading toward very difficult decisions.

A fascinating story of 3 young women who spend the summer together on an island, & the men they love. Not just a chick book, as I'm a guy who enjoyed this book. Good one to read on the beach or while traveling.

As a man, I like to read chick books, to help me understand a woman's perspective. I'll admit it, the "Good in Bed" caught me eye too. The author's plot has some surprising good twists & turns. It really helped me to understand how an overweight woman can struggle with her body, & how her body affects her self-image as well as how others respond to her & see her. I think other guy's would also appreciate a good story about a young overweight woman's struggles & joys in her relationships with others.
The Q & A section at the end was good to see who Weiner based her main characters on & why she chose some elements of the plot.
Overall: a good read.

If u enjoy Nicholas Sparks books, this one's a keeper. This one is autobiographical. This first part of each chapter describes scenes from his round-the-world trip with his brother Micah. The second half of each chapter describes his family when he was growing up, & their interwoven relationships. Did you know that one of Sparks books was inspired by his sister Dana? Another of his books was inspired by his son Ryan & Ryan's struggles to learn.
This Sparks book is different. IT's personal.

If you want to know what it's like to hike the entire Appalachian Trail, but can't walk that far yourself, this is the book for you! The author gives a firsthand account of hiking from Georgia, thru N. Carolina (Great Smokey Nat'l Park), Virgina (Shenandoah Nat'l Park), W. Virginia (Harper's Ferry), Pennsylvania (Delaware Water Gap), New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire (Mount Washington), & Maine. Journey with Bill Bryson for 2100 miles thru silent forests & past sparkling lakes. Bryson's humor & descriptions of silly characters he meet along the way, are superb.

This is a story of characters seeking to survive in a world gone crazy. It's based on a what-if scenario, where the USA is losing its footholds and no longer exists, leaving people to fend for themselves. Rather than focusing on large swaths of society, the author describes a number of individuals' efforts to survive and make their way in a fallen society. The characters are mostly believable and developed into full characters.
