  <default_description>&lt;p&gt; Go further under the covers and stay in bed a little longer with Marian Keyes in this winning follow-up to her smash essay collection, Under the Duvet. Written in the witty, forthright style that has earned her legions of devoted readers, &lt;i&gt;Cracks in My Foundation&lt;/i&gt; offers an even deeper and more candid look into this beloved author's mind and heart, exploring such universal themes as friends and family, home, glamour and beauty, children, travel, and more. Marian's hilarious and thoughtful take on life makes her readers feel they are reading a friend, not just an author. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; Marian continues to entertain with her reports from the trenches, and throws in some original short fiction as well. Whether it's visiting Siberia, breaking it off with an old hairdresser, shopping (of course!), turning &lt;i&gt;forty&lt;/i&gt;, living with her beloved husband, Himself (a man beyond description), or musing on the F word (feminism), Marian shares the joys, passions, and sorrows of her world and helps us feel good about our own. So grab a latte and a pillow and get ready to laugh your slippers off! &lt;/p&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[Normally not my type of book but my lovely friend Heidi loaned me two by this author and it definitely got some chuckles out of me, though initially, picking it up was slow-going.

That being said, I liked the story side a lot more than the essays.  Her first book of essays was much more enthralling.

I felt like I got to know the author through her series of essays mostly about herself...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/23503706">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I really like Marian Keyes as an author so it's fun to read about her real life. You can see bits of her characters in her, but she also write about people very different from her as well. She's a fun Irish girl who is humble enough to admit her flaws. ]]></body>
