Meer over het boek

In this charming comical follow-up to Birds of California, an A-list movie star relocates to Los Angeles, next door to a family of five eligible sisters. The Benedettos, once propelled to fame by a reality show, now live in their parent's crumbling McMansion, facing financial struggles. Their luck changes when Charlie Bingley, the star of Captain Fantastic, moves in nearby with his friend Will Darcy. Charlie quickly falls for June, the oldest Benedetto sister, while their mother, Cinta, eagerly supports the budding romance. However, many are eager to dissuade Charlie from pursuing this family of reality show has-beens. Lilly, the sensible second sister, is acutely aware of their public perception and grapples with her own sorrows. She finds Will, who is battling his own demons, to be arrogant and judgmental, while he perceives her as loud and defensive. Despite their constant clashes, an undeniable attraction simmers beneath the surface. The story unfolds with a vibrant cast in a modern Los Angeles setting, exploring themes of fame, preconceived notions, and the unexpected nature of romance.
