ALL FALL DOWN - JENNIFER WEINER

All Fall Down  - Jennifer Weiner

I am so excited to tell everyone about this book and, it’s author. I love a good novel that truly allows you to escape, letting your brain take a little vacation. I love books that draw you in, characters that you can relate to.

Allison Weiss is one of my favorite characters yet. She is witty and smart, and a girl that women can see themselves in. She is struggling to keep her marriage, her career as a blogger, and her identity as a mother afloat. Her husband is sleeping in the guestroom, her dad is suffering from Alzheimer’s, her career as a blogger has taken off, and she is just trying to keep her head above water. Allison turns to quick relief; pain medication she was prescribed for her back. First one or two pills throughout the day to take the edge off. Then, three at a time, six at a time, to shoveling money from different bank accounts to hide her illegal purchase of extra pills from her husband.

Allison Weiss is fighting the demons women fight every day: Being the perfect mother, having the perfect home, the beautiful marriage, the most successful career. Allison is witty, warm, and desperate to pull her life together.

Jennifer Weiner’s sense of humor is infectious and she truly presents raw, relatable, realistic characters. I love that she serves up raw women as characters, that make us feel like being real is okay. We are real women, with real flaws, and those are the characters we can really identify with. Allison Weiss is your every day mom, juggling her self-esteem and her representation of motherhood. She exemplifies modern struggles and shows us: we all fall down. And it's okay.

All Fall Down is a modern spin on women’s fiction, with an edge, and it is impossible to put down.

 I enjoyed every second of this book, and I can’t wait for you to read it!
