Summary:
Jeannie is a thirty-nine year old movie promoter dealing with a jerk trying to take her top spot in the company, and who just got proposed to by her hunky boyfriend. But she's also a nineteen year old who hasn't moved out of the house, and who has a crazy family that's all coming back to the house for a summer. The novel flips back and forth between those two parts of Jeannie's life, as Jeannie tells her honey why she thinks he shouldn't want to marry her.
Thoughts:
I liked the younger Jeannie much better than the older one. Young Jeannie laughs off her crazy family a lot more than older Jeannie. Jeannie is self-involved, and a bit of a jerk. She doesn't make time for her family, and especially as a thirty-something, is so concerned with how "wacky" her family is that she won't even take her hunky man to meet her family, and he's ready to marry the woman. I'll take "Oblivious Bitch" for 500, Alex.
