Charming. Witty. Snarky. Entertaining. These are just some of the words used to describe author Jen Lancaster. I kept up with Jen's journey since her first memoir. Now in Jeneration X, this is Jen's toughest challenge yet...acting like an adult. Ha! Pretty funny, right? Just take a moment to read th...

This book is hilarious and if you love HGTV or John Hughes movies, then it is even more of a delight.
