{"product_id":"9780061967993","title":"Lipshtick","description":"\u003cp\u003eGet comfy, pull up a pan of blondies, and settle in for some girlfriend talk. Get the lowdown on who's low and how's down, whose long-standing but unspoken conflict with her mother is contributing to her sexual repression, and whose boyfriend named his penis. A hysterical send-up of everyday life and love with lots of heart,  Lipshtick is a quick fix, a good schmooze, a heartfelt sob or two.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt will take you on a trip through things universal to all pairs of X chromosomes worth their salt: for coping with social dances in junior high (where the sexes meet like a hormonal high noon) to the joys of plucking out your chin hair like evil weeds; from the natural order of a girl's fantasies (like sweets that don't make you fat, spending that doesn't break the bank, a beautiful nap in the middle of a long day) to why flings with bad boys are the ultimate in dating pleasure (finding the right boy to lust after is a lifelong struggle--eventually you grow to be picky about who rejects you); from getting married (His best quality? He was like family. His worst quality? He was like family.) to the sad state of postnatal breasts. Gwen Macsai cover it all--with a shtick twist. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll thank God you're not her. No situation unaccounted for, no mole left unexamined, Macsai captures a woman's life from her first leg-shave to her last dose of hormone replacement therapy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen you finish \u003cem\u003eLipshtick\u003c\/em\u003e you'll have added another great girlfriend to your already glittering array. And in this world you can't have enough girlfriends or laughter. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47107750363376,"sku":"9780061967993","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780061967993_p0.jpg?v=1763623786","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780061967993","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
