Story of an editor's assistant who moves temporarily to L.A. to work for a reclusive author while she finishes long-awaited 2nd novel. Author has a quirky, genius son (Frank) who is fascinated with old movies.
Another book with really quirky characters that you can't help but love and feel for. Funny, emotional, big hearted. Frank is the 9 year old child of a famous author whose editor sends an assistant to help her with the computer but she ends up caring for Frank. The book never says specifically but Franks is presumably a savant or has aspergers or some other high IQ/but no social skills condition. You can't help but love him and all of the other quirky characters who form their own definition of family who cares about each other and is there for each other when needed.
