Jennifer Weiner’s new book – The Next Best Thing
“The Next Best Thing” is the latest from American bestseller Jennifer Weiner and just like her previous books this one will certainly tug at your heart strings and have you laughing out loud.
The story:
At twenty-three, Ruth Saunders headed west with her seventy-year-old grandma in tow, hoping to be hired as a television writer. Four years later, she’s hit the jackpot when she gets The Call: the sitcom she wrote, The Next Big Thing, has gotten the green light, and Ruthie’s going to be the show-runner. But her dreams of Hollywood happiness are threatened by demanding actors, number-crunching executives, an unrequited crush on a boss, and her grandmother’s impending nuptials. Set against the fascinating backdrop of Los Angeles show business culture, with an insider’s ear and eye for writer’s rooms, bad behavior backstage and set politics, Jennifer Weiner’s new novel is a rollicking ride on the Hollywood rollercoaster, and a heartfelt story about what it’s like for a young woman to love, and lose, in the land where dreams come true.
Having read “In Her Shoes” I have been a fan of Jennifer’s for a number of years, I am really looking forward to this book
