Non Fiction
Bitter Is the New Black (2006)
Jen Lancaster was living the sweet life-until real life kicked her to the curb.
She had the perfect man, the perfect job-hell, she had the perfect life-and there was no reason to think it wouldn\'t last. Or maybe there was, but Jen Lancaster was too busy being manicured, pedicured, highlighted, and generally adored to notice.
This is the smart-mouthed, soul-searching story of a woman trying to figure out what happens next when she\'s gone from six figures to unemployment checks and she stops to reconsider some of the less-than-rosy attitudes and values she thought she\'d never have to answer for when times were good.
Filled with caustic wit and unusual insight, it\'s a rollicking read as speedy and unpredictable as the trajectory of a burst balloon.
Bright Lights, Big Ass (2007)
Jen Lancaster hates to burst your happy little bubble, but life in the big city isn\'t all it\'s cracked up to be. Contrary to what you see on TV and in the movies, most urbanites aren\'t party-hopping in slinky dresses and strappy stilettos. But lucky for us, Lancaster knows how to make the life of the lower crust mercilessly funny and infinitely entertaining.
Whether she\'s reporting rude neighbors to Homeland Security, harboring a crush on her grocery store clerk, or fighting-and losing-the Battle of the Stairmaster- Lancaster explores how silly, strange, and not-so-fabulous real city living can be. And if anyone doesn\'t like it, they can kiss her big, fat, pink, puffy down parka.
Such a Pretty Fat (2008)
\"To whom the fat rolls.I\'m tired of books where a self-loathing heroine is teased to the point where she starves herself skinny in hopes of a fabulous new life. And I hate the message that women can\'t possibly be happy until we all fit into our skinny jeans. I don\'t find these stories uplifting; they make me want to hug these women and take them out for fizzy champagne drinks and cheesecake and explain to them that until they figure out their insides, their outsides don\'t matter. Unfortunately, being overweight isn\'t simply a societal issue that can be fixed with a dose healthy of positive self-esteem. It\'s a health matter, and here on the eve of my fortieth year, I\'ve learned I have to make changes so I don\'t, you know, die. Because what good if finally being able to afford a pedicure if I lose a foot to adult onset diabetes?\"
Pretty In Plaid (2009)
In Pretty in Plaid, Jen Lancaster reveals how she developed the hubris that perpetually gets her into trouble. Using fashion icons of her youth to tell her hilarious and insightful stories, readers will meet the girl she used to be.
Think Jen Lancaster was always \"like David Sedaris with pearls and a super-cute handbag?\" (Jennifer Coburn) Think again. She was a badge-hungry Junior Girl Scout with a knack for extortion, an aspiring sorority girl who didn\'t know her Coach from her Louis Vuitton, and a budding executive who found herself bewildered by her first encounter with a fax machine. In this humorous and touching memoir, Jen Lancaster looks back on her life-and wardrobe-before bitter was the new black and shows us a young woman not so very different than the rest of us.
The author who showed us what it was like to wait in line at the unemployment office with a Prada bag, how living in the city can actually suck, and that losing weight can be fun with a trainer named Barbie and enough Ambien is ready to take you on a hilarious and heartwarming trip down memory lane in her shoes (and very pretty ones at that).

Fiction
If You Were Here
Told in the uproariously entertaining voice readers have come to expect from Jen Lancaster, If You Were Here follows Amish-zombie-teen- romance author Mia and her husband Mac (and their pets) through the alternately frustrating, exciting, terrifying-but always funny-process of buying and renovating their first home in the Chicago suburbs that John hughes\'s movies made famous. Along their harrowing renovation journey, Mia and Mac get caught up in various wars with the homeowners\' association, meet some less-than-friendly neighbors, and are joined by a hilarious cast of supporting characters, including a celebutard ex- landlady. As they struggle to adapt to their new surroundings- with Mac taking on the renovations himself- Mia and Mac will discover if their marriage is strong enough to survive months of DIY renovations.
