This series of interconnected stories--which describe often-poignant situations in the snarky narrative voice of Jane Rosenal--follows Jane through her young life. The first story begins with Jane as a wise-beyond-her-years 14-year old. In subsequent stories, she copes with a series of Mr. Wrongs, an affair with a much older man, the death of her beloved father from cancer, and her doomed career in publishing. When THE GIRLS' GUIDE TO HUNTING AND FISHING was first published, in 1999, it was a huge bestseller as well as a critical success; it was perhaps the book that ushered in the now highly popular genre known as "chick lit." But Melissa Bank's story cycle is not only fun to read--it's a literate and observant tale of a young woman's coming of age and beyond.

How we describe the condition of our books

We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)

New: Exactly as it says.

As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.

Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.

Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.

Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.

Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
