This Bird Has Flown

"This debut novel from the Bangles singer and guitarist follows Jane Start, a one-hit-wonder musician whose life is in shambles: Her boyfriend has left her for a younger woman, and at 33, she has moved back in with her parents. But her luck changes when she meets a handsome Oxford literature professor on a plane to London, and she gets an opportunity to revitalize her flagging career. Susanna Hoffs is a tremendously funny author; she writes with an amused gentleness that syncs perfectly with Jane’s frenetic, somewhat anxious personality. This novel is a winning rom-com and a charming valentine to music."
