Join glimmering conversation with New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Weiner as we chat about the emotional depth of her books that have been inspiring readers toward self-discovery for decades.
In a special preview, Weiner will briefly discuss her forthcoming novel (due out on April 8, 2025) The Griffin Sister’s Greatest Hits. Set in the world of pop music, The Griffin Sister’s Greatest Hits is about sisters, motherhood, young love, and the dreams we chase. On the brink of adulthood in the early 2000s, destiny intervens, catapulting the sisters into the spotlight as the pop sensation the Griffin Sisters, hitting all the touchstones of early aughts fame—SNL, MTV, Rolling Stone magazine—along the way.
Two decades later, Zoe’s a housewife; Cassie’s off the grid. The sisters aren’t speaking, and the real reason for the Griffin Sisters’ breakup is still a mystery. Can they forgive each other—and themselves? Will the Griffin Sisters ever make music again?
