THIS IS GONNA END IN TEARS BY LIZA KLAUSSMANN Miller, Ash and Ollie are childhood friends growing up in the Quaker seaside town of Wonderland. Thick as thieves, the trio are never apart and long for the day when they can escape the confines of their parochial town. As teenagers they make it to Malibu where everything is fantastic, until suddenly, it’s not. Now in their forties Miller and Ash are married with a teenage son and living back in Wonderland. Ollie, who is single and recently unemployed returns to the town and friends of his youth in the hope of finding purpose or redemption. Consumed with their own loves, losses, and secrets, they fail to notice what’s happening between Miller’s son and the girl next door. A compelling coming of age story filled with messy relationships, regrets and an 80s soundtrack. This is Gonna End in Tears is perfect for fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid.
