Críticas:
"I'm mad Jennifer's Weiner's first book of essays is as wonderful as her fiction. You will love this book and wish she was your friend."--Mindy Kaling, author of Why Not Me?
Praise for Hungry Heart
"Hungry Heart is a fiercely funny, powerfully smart, and remarkably brave book. With candor, wit, and insight, Jennifer Weiner writes beautifully about her darkest struggles and brightest triumphs, about growing up and getting on with it, about gaining and losing, about herself and also--ultimately--about all of us. I was spellbound by Hungry Heart from the first page to the last."--Cheryl Strayed, New York Times bestselling author of Wild
"Haven't we all wondered exactly how the many-splendored Jennifer Weiner became so many-splendored? This candid, poignant, and very funny memoir tells all, and I'm confident other readers will be as fascinated and moved by it as I was."--Curtis Sittenfeld, New York Times bestselling author
"You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll want to read it again."--The Skimm
"In this generous, entertaining memoir, novelist Weiner, known for her plus-size heroines, authentic voice, and hilarious one-liners, offers her fans and others a front-row seat to the drama of her life. Weiner doggedly pursues her dream of becoming a writer who speaks to women's lives, insisting--and proving--that women's stories matter, and not just those of the slim and beautiful. Like her enormously popular commercial fiction, from its very first page this memoir will enthusiastically reach out to female readers and swiftly draw them close."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Bestselling novelist Weiner has hit it out of the park with this moving collection of autobiographical essays."--New York Post
"In her new memoir, Hungry Heart, Weiner turns her understanding eye on her most compelling character yet--herself--and reveals the story behind some of her most beloved books. You'll laugh, you'll cry--and in true Jen style, there's a happy ending."--Good Housekeeping
"Weiner lays her heart bare in this memoir, which is insightful and affecting and affirms exactly why she is so popular--she is gifted in the ability to write honestly and easily."--Booklist
"Funny, fierce, feisty!"--Glamour

Jennifer Weiner is many things: a bestselling author, a Twitter phenomenon, and an “unlikely feminist enforcer” (The New Yorker). She’s also a mom, a daughter, and a sister, a clumsy yogini, and a reality-TV devotee. In this “unflinching look at her own experiences” (Entertainment Weekly), Jennifer fashions tales of modern-day womanhood as uproariously funny and moving as the best of Nora Ephron and Tina Fey.
No subject is off-limits in these intimate and honest essays: sex, weight, envy, money, her mother’s coming out of the closet, her estranged father’s death. From lonely adolescence to hearing her six-year-old daughter say the F word—fat—for the first time, Jen dives into the heart of female experience, with the wit and candor that have endeared her to readers all over the world.
