Belinda \"Benny\" Bernstein doesn't brag about her life in Los Angeles, but she is proud of her independence. She's got a job and a place to live, and she even goes out on dates now and again. But when Benny's mother and sister get into a car accident, she drops everything to fly across the country and help her injured, unemployed mom. The only problem? She wasn't exactly invited -- and back in Virginia she finds herself confronting every issue her family has avoided for years, including her mom's thriving sex life and her sister's wild nightlife. Benny sets about fixing everything she thinks is broken at home, including mounds of clutter and the personal lives of the women she loves. But she soon stumbles upon a stack of letters that may reveal her mother's darkest secret. Benny only begins to understand her mom when she finds herself in a similar dilemma -- torn between someone she can't have and someone she thinks she shouldn't have. If Benny doesn't sort things out before she's sucked into the family vortex of dysfunction, there's no telling when she'll be able to go home again . . . unless this is home, after all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pamela Ribon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pocket Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.08h x 6.74w x 0.81d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781416503859\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eIngram Advance\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2005 pg. 44\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2006 pg. 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/21\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eRibon, Pamela:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003ePamela Ribon\u003c\/b\u003e is a bestselling author, television writer and performer. A pioneer in the blogging world, her first novel, \u003ci\u003eWhy Girls Are Weird\u003c\/i\u003e, was loosely based on her extremely successful website pamie.com. The site has been nominated for a Bloggie in Lifetime Achievement, which makes her feel old. Ribon created the cult sensation and tabloid tidbit \u003ci\u003eCall Us Crazy: The Anne Heche Monologues\u003c\/i\u003e, a satire of fame, fandom and Fresno. Her two-woman show, \u003ci\u003eLetters Never Sent\u003c\/i\u003e (created with four-time Emmy winner and \u003ci\u003eJay Leno Show\u003c\/i\u003e favorite Liz Feldman) was showcased at the 2005 HBO US Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen. She has been writing in television for the past seven years, in both cable and network, including on the Emmy-award winning \u003ci\u003eSamantha Who?\u003c\/i\u003e starring Christina Applegate. Using her loyal Internet fan base, Ribon sponsors book drives for libraries in need. Over the years, pamie.com has sent thousands of books and materials to Oakland and San Diego, sponsored a Tsunami-ravaged village of schoolchildren, and helped restock the shelves of a post-Katrina Harrison County, Mississippi. Ribon's book drive can now be found at DeweyDonationSystem.org, which has sponsored libraries from the Negril School in Jamaica to the Children's Institute in Los Angeles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pocket Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44409865338995,"sku":"9781416503859","price":21.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_e8f9e0bb-0035-4ef7-817e-e204e278de43.jpg?v=1771938699","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/why-moms-are-weird-9781416503859","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
