About this listen

Twenty-year-old Jenny is struggling to make friends at university and moves in to Sunset Promenade to escape her problems. Her roommates are a little older than she was expecting - Sunset Promenade is a private nursing home, taking in students to save money. At first the new residents clash, but when Jenny introduces a movie night the group realise they have more in common than they think.

In the spirit of his best seller Calling Major Tom, David M. Barnett's second novel introduces a cast of quirky yet lovable characters who explore the aches of being young and the pains of being old. The Growing Pains of Jennifer Ebert, Aged 19 Going on 91 is an uplifting story about community and belonging that will leave you with a spring in your step no matter how old you are.

Disappointing.

I had this book on pre-order since it was released and I was sorely disappointed by it. The main character was horrid, and barely had one redeeming quality and the supporting characters were not much better. The narration was okay.
