The Cannie Shapiro series starts with Good in Bed (2002), Jennifer Weiner’s debut novel. Cannie is a newspaper reporter in Philadelphia who discovers that her ex-boyfriend is writing a magazine column about dating an overweight woman. The book follows Cannie through the fallout, mixing humor with honest writing about body image and self-worth.
Certain Girls (2008) returns to Cannie years later, now married and raising a teenage daughter who finds out about the old column. Good Men (2013) is a short prequel that fills in backstory.
