MJCCA Welcomes New York Times Bestselling Author Jennifer Weiner

A Page From the Book Festival of the Marcus Jewish
Community Center of Atlanta (MJCCA), in partnership with the AJC Decatur Book
Festival, presents Jennifer Weiner, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of ten
books, including: Good in Bed; In Her Shoes, which was made into a
major motion picture; and The Next Best
Thing.

Weiner will present her newest novel, All Fall Down, a
book that exposes the secret world of women who appear to have it all; women
who are smart, successful…and addicted. Ticket prices are $24-$30,
and includes one signed, first-edition
of All Fall Down; a complimentary glass of wine; a dessert reception; and a book signing following the program. Tickets are on sale now.
Seating is limited; reservations are recommended.

About All Fall Down

Allison Weiss
got her happy ending—a handsome husband, an adorable little girl, a job she
loves, and a big house in the suburbs. But when she’s in the pediatrician’s
office with her daughter and a magazine flips open to a quiz about addiction,
she starts to wonder whether her use of prescription pills is becoming a
problem. On the one hand, it’s just prescription medication, the stuff her
doctors give her. Is a Percocet at the end of a hard day really different than
a glass of wine? Is it such a bad thing to pop a Vicodin after a brutal Jump
& Pump class…or after your husband ignores you?

All Fall Down centers on a topic that’s in the headlines
everywhere from The New York Times to People magazine,
as Weiner gives voice to an unfortunately growing community of women. With a
sparkling comedic touch and tender, true-to-life characterizations, this tale
of empowerment and redemption – a woman who falls down and has to find her way
back up again -- is Jennifer Weiner’s most poignant, timely, and triumphant
story yet.



 



Forbes magazine ranked her second on their list of “25 Working Moms
to Follow on Twitter” saying: “Bestselling
novelist Weiner writes guilty pleasure beach reads, fights for her fellow
female authors, and still makes time for reality TV commentary. Tune in for
hilarious shards of brilliance.”
