![]() ![]() In Her Shoes - Jennifer Weiner`s follow-up to her critically acclaimed debut, Good in Bed - observes Rose and Maggie, the brain and the beauty, as they make journeys of discovery that take them from the streets of Philadelphia to Ivy League libraries to a "retirement community for active seniors" in Boca Raton. These two women with nothing in common but a childhood tragedy, shared DNA, and the same size feet, are about to learn that their family is more different than they ever imagined, and that they`re more alike than they`d ever believe. ![]() Although her dreams of big-screen stardom haven`t progressed past her left hip`s appearance in a Will Smith video, Maggie dreams of fame and fortune - and of getting her dowdy big sister to stick to a skin-care regime. Twenty-eight years old, drop-dead gorgeous and only occasionally employed, Maggie sings backup in a band called Whiskered Biscuit. She also dreams of getting her fantastically screwed-up little sister to get her life together. She has an exercise regime she`s going to start next week, and she dreams of a man who will slide off her glasses, gaze into her eyes, and tell her that she`s beautiful. She`s thirty years old and a high-powered attorney with a secret passion for romance novels. ![]()
