While this \u003ci\u003eDesperate Housewives\u003c\/i\u003e meets \u003ci\u003eSex in the City\u003c\/i\u003e murder mystery won't make readers shake in their Manolo Blahniks, it will provide the obligatory humor and compassion to which fans of Weiner's \u003ci\u003eGood in Bed\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eIn Her Shoes\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eLittle Earthquakes\u003c\/i\u003e have grown accustomed. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKate Klein is a feisty, charmingly insecure Connecticut housewife who trades in a life of late-night karaoke sing-a-longs and West Village brunches with her best friend Janie for a world of mini-vans and Mommy and Me pilates classes. Life in Upchurch, Connecticut, heats up when Kate discovers picture-perfect wife and mother Kitty Cavanaugh dead on the pickled maple hardwood floor of her recently remodeled kitchen. A former chronicler of celebrity gossip, Kate takes it upon herself to solve the mystery of Kitty's murder and the disappearance of Lexi Hagen-Holdt, another Upchurch supermom. Along the way, the mysteries and disappointments in Kate's personal life begin to unravel, including her marriage to the kind-yet-uptight Ben, and her unresolved crush on Evan McKenna, a former neighbor with whom a one-night tryst ended in disaster. Thrown in for comic relief, and perhaps to show the depth of Weiner's talents as a writer, are Kate's twin boys and adorably sophisticated 5-year old daughter Sophie (\"Sophie was sitting on the toilet, applying lipstick and waiting her turn...\"). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eGoodnight Nobody\u003c\/i\u003e is chock full of plot twists and turns which can be overwhelming and superfluous. However, Weiner's charm and grace are usually enough to rescue readers from these moments of confusion, and reaffirm our commitment to this endearing contemporary voice. \u003ci\u003e--Gisele Toueg\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ex Libris Used Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43507586564323,"sku":"EXL732-4124","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/5675\/7951\/products\/536829.jpg?v=1667848825","url":"https:\/\/www.exlibrismichigan.com\/products\/goodnight-nobody-jennifer-weiner","provider":"Ex Libris Used Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
