This is Where We Live
This is Where We Live by Janelle Brown is a book set in LA about a newly married couple, an artist and film maker, both hoping for their big break in Hollywood. They’ve invested all their money in a cute but overpriced bungalow in the hills. A series of events from an earthquake to the return of the now famous ex-girlfriend leads to serious challenges to their marriage.
Although filled with some cliches, Brown’s keen observations and writing skills turn this into a relatable story with even a few moments of wisdom. A decent, but mostly forgettable, read.
