![]() While I was enamored with the 2nd season of the Netflix series, even giving it higher praise than Season 1, I feel the polar opposite when it comes to the novels. Mix that with the goings on of Hollywood and the inability to put your past behind you, including a couple moldering corpses, and Joe has a good deal on his plate and that’s on top of the stale chips and guac. Unfortunately, Love has a twin brother who continues to have his sis wrapped around his finger, a dude named Milo who keeps showing up in the picture, and the girl Joe came to LA to find and rid himself of that are all standing in the way of a perfect love story. While intending to start afresh, Joe finds his newest obsession in the form of Love Quinn. This time around, Joe takes his show on the road and heads to LA.

And when he finds it in a darkened room in Soho House, he’s more desperate than ever to keep his secrets buried. They re-emerge, like dark thoughts, multiplying and threatening to destroy what Joe wants most: true love. The problem with hidden bodies is that they don’t always stay that way. But while others seem fixated on their own reflections, Joe can’t stop looking over his shoulder. He eats guac, works in a bookstore, and flirts with a journalist neighbor. In Hollywood, Joe blends in effortlessly with the other young upstarts. Now he’s heading west to Los Angeles, the city of second chances, determined to put his past behind him. ![]() In the past ten years, this thirty-something has buried four of them, collateral damage in his quest for love.
