Book Reviews
Her most sprawling and intensely personal novel to date.
Entertainment Weekly


A topical novel about sisterhood, heartache, hope, and womanhood that takes readers through the "herstory" of the second half of the 20th century.
Bustle


Jennifer Weiner is the master of richly told page-turners about complicated and likable women.
Refinery 29


Simply unputdownable.
Good Housekeeping


(Starred review) [A] heartwrenching multigenerational tale of love, loss, and family, which is partly inspired by Little Women.… Weiner’s talent for characterization, tight pacing, and detail will thrill her fans and easily draw new ones into her orbit.
Publishers Weekly


From the 1950s to the present, two sisters push against the limits of their world, shifting and changing even as America changes with them. From No. 1 New York Times best-selling author Weiner.
Library Journal


(Starred review) Readers will flock to this ambitious, nearly flawless novel.… Weiner asks big questions about how society treats women in this slyly funny, absolutely engrossing novel that is simultaneously epic and intimate.
Booklist


A sprawling story about two sisters growing up, apart, and back together.… A poignant reminder… [and] ambitious look at how women's roles have changed—and stayed the same—over the last 70 years.
Kirkus Reviews


[A] novel for the ages… as impressive as it is ambitious.… Weiner shows that big, expansive social novels are not only still possible in our fragmented society but perhaps necessary. Mrs. Everything is a great American novel, full of heart and hope.
