Vowing to leave Iowa behind, sassy Jane Willow left for Los Angeles and never looked back. Eighteen years later, she is a successful film critic who may have run away from her past, but not from her parents, who visit her often. She has even decided to buy them a townhouse in L.A. so that they can be closer to her. Her happiness and carefree life are shattered when her parents die tragically and Jane must go home. There, she confronts secrets from her past and mends an old friendship. Leiknes' latest (after 2017's Black-Eyed Susan) takes the reader on an emotional roller-coaster ride, near tears at one moment and laughing out loud the next. Jane is a wisecracking character who grows emotionally over the course of the novel. A fairly open ending leaves room for a possible sequel. Recommended for fans of Jojo Moyes and Carol Rifka Brunt.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2018, American Library Association.)
