When It Happens to You/Molly Ringwald/240 pages

To start, yes, the author is that Molly Ringwald. The actress of many teenage-angst movies is also a published author and a surprisingly good one. This is subtitled "a novel in stories." The first story deals with Greta, her husband Phillip and their spoiled six-year-old daughter, Charlotte. As the stories unfold, we see a thread running through them all. The last story comes back to deal with Greta and Phillip and their future.

I've always been a fan of short stories, and this combines both the short story and novel format, so it could convince more fans of each to try the other.
