This debut novel about a fresh college graduate returning to her parent's home seems quite timely what with seeing articles every day about this subject. Boomerang generation or bust?
Leigh Stein was a New Yorker staffer and writes in a smart witty fashion which transitions smoothly to a sad story. She has to create her own definition of who she is as an adult while she is surrounded by old friends, old prescription transquilizers while living in her kid bedroom with her parents down the hall. It's funny and heartbreaking at times and on sale in January 2012.
