"Heartburn" by Nora Ephron

“I read this every year.”

“Writer/director/goddess Nora Ephron was seven months pregnant when she discovered her husband was having an affair. Living by the motto, “Everything is copy,” she crafted a wicked break-up novel that makes you want to grab life by the balls. Pair with Milk Bar truffles for maximum enjoyment!”

“so funny and real, i couldn't put it down”

“The funniest book you’ll ever read about divorce. So incisive and witty. Also doubles as a cookbook! Go get your life!”

“I’ve seen the movie with Meryl but hearing her read it hit differently, maybe because it feels like hanging out with both her and Nora at the same time and that’s comforting.”

“One of my all time favorites. Incredibly witty, sharp, and emotional. Nora Ephron! The GOAT.”

“Was going to have this be a summer read but turned into my spring read as it was 92° and I had to sit by the river with a book. accepting recs for what to read next”

“A devastatingly funny book about infidelity and divorce. Also, sometimes, a cookbook.”

“NARRATED BY MERYL STREEP. THAT IS ALL.”

“this book is so brilliant and captures so many relatable things about being a neurotic jewish woman who eats food. it’s wacky and funny while also being emotional. loved it.”
