All Fall Down (Weiner)

Book Reviews
The everymom heroine in this novel becomes a hard-core pill addict–and it’s impossible to look away.
Glamour


Weiner’s sly portrayal of family, entitlement and recovery culture is a romp—with an edge.
Good Housekeeping


[A] page-turning saga about a working mom, Allison Weiss, who uses pills to deal with recurrent pain, not to mention life’s increasing challenges.... Although the ultimate explanation for Allison’s problems is cliched, Weiner...convincingly shows that addiction can, indeed, be overcome, but only with genuine commitment and hard, hard work.
Publishers Weekly


(Starred review.) An absolutely heartbreaking read that will leave readers haunted. Great for book clubs or for anyone trying to understand a loved one's addiction.
Library Journal


(Starred review.) Weiner, who is a master at creating realistic characters, is at her best here, handling a delicate situation with witty dialogue and true-to-life scenes. Readers will be nodding their heads in sympathy as Allison struggles to balance being a mother, a daughter, and a wife while desperately just wanting to be herself.
