Jennifer Weiner chats with Carol Fitzgerald from her “closet studio” to discuss her new book, Big Summer, which is a great beach read. They talk about how the book looks at the theme of female friendships and their often fraught natures, as well as the role that social media plays in our lives today. Jen also shares more about layering in a mystery, and inspiration for that. Social influencers, as well as body image and women embracing who they are, also roll into their fast-paced conversation, as well as lots of personal stories.
