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.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.Plan B 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 Star Wars is as good a life lesson today as it was when you were six years old.
