I recently started in on a new book called This Is Where I Leave You by Jonathan Tropper. Fifty pages in and I've already had to stifle my laughter so I don't look like a crazy person in public. This one is about Judd Foxman who is going through a trying time in his life: His father has just died and he's in the process of a divorce. Tropper never beats around the bush and presents tragedy in a relatable and inappropriately hilarious manner. I have a feeling that this one will be a quick read!
And if anyone needs further motivation to read it, the novel is being adapted to the big screen, set to come out this September. Jason Bateman tops off the cast as Judd (perfect!), and other stars such as Tina Fey, Jane Fonda, Dax Shepard, and Rose Byrne round it out.
