Publisher's Summary

The fiction debut of the New York Times best-selling author of My Fair Lazy. Told in the uproariously entertaining voice readers have come to expect from Jen Lancaster, If You Were Here follows Amish-zombie-teen- romance author Mia and her husband Mac (and their pets) through the alternately frustrating, exciting, terrifying - but always funny - process of buying and renovating their first home in the Chicago suburbs that John Hughes's movies made famous.

Along their harrowing renovation journey, Mia and Mac get caught up in various wars with the homeowners' association, meet some less-than-friendly neighbors, and are joined by a hilarious cast of supporting characters, including a celebutard ex- landlady. As they struggle to adapt to their new surroundings - with Mac taking on the renovations himself - Mia and Mac will discover if their marriage is strong enough to survive months of DIY renovations.

Great first nonfiction novel

let yourself get over the fact that the character is SO much like Jen herself and you'll enjoy this funny novel 💕 I'm going to buy her next nonfiction first before reading more of her nonfiction to see if she was able to distance herself more from her characters. She's a funny lady and her stories are amazing whether fiction or nonfiction.
