<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Ten years ago, Ben, Lindsey, Chuck, Alison, and Jack graduated from NYU; now they're facing divorce, unemployment, boredom, and even drug addiction. It seems the one thing they've learned in the last 10 years is that nothing turns out the way they planned.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>The heartwarming debut novel by the New York Times bestselling author of <i>This is Where I Leave You </i>and <i>One Last Thing Before I Go.</i> <p/>Turning thirty was never supposed to be like this. Ten years ago, Ben, Lindsey, Chuck, Alison, and Jack graduated from New York University and went out into the world, fresh-faced and full of dreams for the future. But now Ben's getting a divorce; Lindsey's unemployed; Alison and Chuck seem stuck in ruts of their own making; and Jack is getting more publicity for his cocaine addiction than his multimillion-dollar Hollywood successes. <p/>Suddenly, turning thirty-- past the age their parents were when they were born, older than every current star athlete or pop music sensation-- seems to be both more meaningful and less than they'd imagined ten years ago. <p/><i>Plan B</i>, Jonathan Tropper's wonderful debut novel, is about more than friendship, love, celebrity, addiction, kidnapping, or even turning thirty-- it's a heartfelt comic riff on what it means to be an adult against your will, to be single when you thought you'd have a family, to discover you are not, in fact, immortal, and to learn that <i>Star Wars</i> is as good a life lesson today as it was when you were six years old.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Madcap...Entertaining as Friends...Tropper keeps the story moving at a brisk pace with crackling TV dialogue." --Publishers Weekly <p/>"It's amazing what can happen in the hands of the casually brilliant author . . . A." --Entertainment Weekly <p/>"To Tropper's credit, Plan B is a bit like life-- or at least, like entertainment." --Los Angeles Times <p/>"If The Big Chill had Gen X angst, you would probably have something like Plan B...[Tropper] does it with wit, insight, and a lot of fun cultural references to the '80s." --Booklist <p/>"When I read McInerney's Bright Lights, Big City years ago, I realized that McInerney was going to hit big. I had the same feeling when I read Plan B, and I'll go a step further: Tropper's a much better writer . . . I raced through the novel, thoroughly intrigued." --Rocky Mountain News on Plan B<i>tertainment Weekly</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Jonathan Tropper is also the author of <i>This Is Where I Leave You</i>, <i>How to Talk to a Widower</i>, <i>Everything Changes</i>, and <i>The Book of Joe.</i> He lives with his family in Westchester, New York, where he teaches writing at Manhattanville College.
