Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce (2014)

A self-help writer has to renegotiate her own public identity when her marriage breaks down. Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce combines lawyers, children, money and newly necessary friendships with a glossy Los Angeles social world. Choose it for the practical and reputational work of admitting that the advice-giver also needs help. Its heightened romantic complications are part of the entertainment, not a model for how quickly recovery should happen.
