Cannie Shapiro never wanted to be famous. The smart, sharp, plus-sized pop culture reporter was perfectly content writitng about other people's lives in the pages of the Philadlphia Examiner. But the day she opened up a national women's magazine to find out that her ex-boyfriend has been chronicling their ex-sex life is the day her life changes forever.
Loving a larger woman is an act of courage in our world, Bruce has written. And Cannie - who never knew that Bruce saw her as a larger woman, or thought that loving her was an act of courage - is plunged into misery, and into the most amazing year of her life.
Radiant with wit, bursting with surprises, and written with bite and bittersweet humor, Jennifer Weiner reaches beyond Cannie's story and into the heart of every woman. Gut-level real and laugh-out-loud funny, Good in Bed celebrates the courage of the human spirit and features an unbelievably funny cast of supporting characters, the strangest dog you'll ever encounter, and a heroine you'll never forget.

My only complaint was the reader. Her deep voice and characterizations weren't really something that went with the story. It was almost stereotypical, and seems as though they were indicating that all "bigger" women have masculine voices.
Great, Real, and Inspiring Story

Would you listen to Good in Bed again? Why?
I plan on reading this book again in the future. This reading moved from body image, to love, to hate, to hope and to moving on in life even through tough times. I normally fall for novels that have a dystopia theme however this novel pulled me in because the main character is portrayed as a strong female who can work through life as it comes at her. A very real life novel on how it is to live in today's world, almost like a reality TV show.An emotional book!

What did you love best about Good in Bed?
I loved the funny parts :DWhat was one of the most memorable moments of Good in Bed?
I don't want to spoil it, so I will leave it at I loved the twists and turns.. kept you on your toesHave you listened to any of Laura Hicks’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No, I haven't. My only complaints about her, however, was not about her performance. She does a good job at doing different characters. The only real issue I had was that the character is supposed to be in her late twenties but this reader sounded a bit older (I would guess late thirties to early forties). It sort of put me off a little, because when the character talked about her recent college/ post bacc. years, it felt unbelievable.. but she is a great reader.If you could take any character from Good in Bed out to dinner, who would it be and why?
Definitely Canny, she seems like she would be a great friend to have, funny and candid.Any additional comments?
I like the story, but the slow plot/character development took some getting used to. Overall, recommended!Good listen, but took some getting used to.
