Companion novel to: The bookish life of Nina Hill.
Includes a readers guide.
"A young woman moves to Los Angeles to escape her life and discovers she doesn't have to leave all of herself behind to make a fresh start, from USA Today bestselling author Abbi Waxman. When Laura Costello moves to Los Angeles, hoping to finally get away from her overprotective family, she doesn't expect to be homeless after a week. (She's almost certain she didn't start that fire . . . right?) When she's rescued by a charming but eccentric bookseller and installed in a slightly chaotic and entirely illegal boardinghouse, she isn't sure if she's fallen on her feet or just out of the frying pan. A handsome housemate, a landlady with regrets, and the unwelcome attention of an old flame conspire to make Laura's life far more complicated than she hoped. However, a set of new friends who widen her experience-and knowledge of trivia-will do their very best to help this transplant put down roots and learn what it really means to be an adult"-- Provided by publisher.

Great summer read submitted by kmp009 on July 7, 2022, 8:33pm Loved this and couldn’t put it down. I appreciate that the author revisits characters from her previous novels.

warm and lovely submitted by bec on July 21, 2022, 2:02pm This book returns to Waxman's warm and vibrant Los Angeles, where new characters cross paths with familiar ones. It's a lovely read with a distinctive setting, humor, and satisfying character growth.
