The themes are twenty-something, discovering your life (a guy inherits his grandma's remote cabin and moves there from Florida, and he's totally out of place), but since it takes place in one of my favorite spots, the Anderson Valley, I kept reading.

I'd never read it, or seen the Winona Ryder/Daniel Day-Lewis/Michelle Pfeiffer movie from the 90s.

Novella is funny and intrepid, and her experiences are outrageous as she learns along the way to farm in a city on a shoestring budget.
