Reader beware that if you read this book (or any of Jen Lancaster's books for that matter), be prepared to put on notice any friends, family, co-workers and others in your life that when you're reading this, you will be laughing out loud, snorting, giggling and often than not, stifling your laughter (so as to not appear completely like you've lost your mind), to the point where you seem to be wheezing from a form of an asthma attack.

In other words?

This crazy chica is HILARIOUS.

Jeneration X, while not as strong of a total theme as compared to her other novels (in my opinion), is witty, funny and gives you lessons and sometimes even deep thoughts that give you pause to think. It's one fun read that I couldn't put it down and like all of Jen's books that I've read so far (all but her fiction novel), has yet to even remotely disappoint. She's bright, vivacious and you totally wish you could be friends with her; heck, even neighbors (though she's not fond of them, haha).

My most favorite parts of the book was the Thanksgiving-themed chapter (so true that the family you choose is often better than your actual relatives) and the one where her bra tried to strangle her during a financial meeting with her, Fletch and the banker. :D

Reading Jen's novel is like hearing funny stories from a girl friend over some Starbucks, laughing your head off and having a blast - except with words and paper....though if you read this while sipping on a mocha caramel frapp is kinda close. ;)
