Mine Are Spectacular!: A Novelby Janice Kaplan
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:In the wealthy New York suburb of Hadley Farms, divorced mom Sara Turner is juggling a new fiance, a new TV career, and a Newcomer's Club that throws sex-toy parties. Her oldest friend, Kate Steele, is Manhattan's Derm Darling-a successful Park Avenue skin doctor whose office is always packed with the city's creme de la thin . . . and whose bedroom is frequented by a real estate mogul who has his own plane-and his own very big problem. Meanwhile, Sara's new neighbor, Berni Davis, has just quit her career as a wildly successful Hollywood talent agent: pregnant with twins, she's leaving behind her A-list parties and high-profile pals, trading in the fast track for the cul-de-sac. Will heating formula be as thrilling as creating the formula for the next box-office blockbuster?
At an age when women expect to find doors closing, forty-one-year-old Sara and her friends are all on the brink of new beginnings. For these three savvy and spirited friends, facing new options at midlife brings unexpected twists-a baby shower starring a male stripper, the latest Brazilian anticellulite treatment, and a day at a doggie spa that features lipo. Complications arise when a long-gone husband returns from Patagonia, a seductive ex-wife fights to win back Sara's fiance, and a hunky soap star stands waiting in the wings. But in a world where women spend their forties trying to look thirty, and girls as young as four use alpha-hydroxy to keep their skin baby smooth, these best friends help one another keep their priorities straight. Most of the time. A fresh, funny novel about starting over, Mine Are Spectacular! will delight readers with the exploits of these irresistibly witty women. By turnstouching and laugh-aloud funny, this is a must read for every woman who knows you're always the right age for new adventures. From the Hardcover edition. Synopsis:In the follow-up to The Botox Diaries, three friends--Sara Turner, a divorced mom juggling a new fianc, a TV career, and the Newcomer's Club; pregnant talent agent Berni Davis; and noted Park Avenue dermatologist Kate Steele, involved in an affair with a married mogul--rely on one another for advice, support, and a good time. 50,000 first printing.
