Description
“Abbi Waxman is both irreverent and thoughtful.”—#1 New York Times bestselling author Emily Giffin
A young woman arrives in Los Angeles determined to start over and discovers she doesn’t need to leave everything behind after all, from Abbi Waxman, USA Today bestselling author of The Bookish Life of Nina Hill
When Laura Costello moves to Los Angeles, trying to escape an overprotective family and the haunting memories of a terrible accident, she doesn’t expect to be homeless after a week. (She’s pretty sure she didn’t start that fire — right?) She also doesn't expect to find herself adopted by a rogue bookseller, installed in a lovely but completely illegal boardinghouse, or challenged to save a losing trivia team from ignominy…but that’s what happens. Add a regretful landlady, a gorgeous housemate and an ex-boyfriend determined to put himself back in the running and you’ll see why Laura isn’t really sure she’s cut out for this adulting thing. Luckily for her, her new friends Nina, Polly and Impossibly Handsome Bob aren't sure either, but maybe if they put their heads (and hearts) together they’ll be able to make it work.

September 1, 2022
Waxman (The Bookish Life of Nina Hill; The Garden of Small Beginnings) and narrator Emily Rankin return to the Nina Hill Universe with this lovely listen. Laura Costello moves from New York to Los Angeles for grad school, but a debilitating car accident and PTSD leave her scarred. She's hesitant to branch out on her own but desperately needs the time and space away from her overbearing ex-boyfriend and overprotective family. When Laura finds herself homeless after her apartment building catches on fire, she stumbles into the perfect place, where she meets a cast of quirky characters, including Impossibly Handsome Bob. Rankin's performance has a comforting quality while still capturing the emotion and unique personalities of the characters. She gives Laura and Bob even-keeled voices that match their personalities, but she performs the rest of the characters with appropriately off-beat, unpredictable tones. VERDICT This light, heartwarming story is a good addition to any library collection, although it may be best appreciated by Waxman fans looking to reunite with beloved characters.--Emily Pykare
