Description
For fans of Running with Scissors, The Glass Castle, and Educated, comes a true coming-of-age memoir about a vagabond family led by a self-absorbed, eccentric hippie mother during the age of Aquarius.
Devastating family drama, abandonment, and drugs are balanced with laugh-out-loud humor that will keep you turning pages. You'll laugh, cry, and be left begging for more. The story begins with an episode that occurred in 1974.
When Tom Bross (age 12) experiences a sudden move from Davis to San Anselmo to live with their God Family. Just two months later they move back to Davis with no place to live. His brother and sisters are dropped off at their friend's houses. Tom ends up in the garage of one of his mother's ex-lovers. It's from this dreary location that he recalls his family's truly strange transition.
Led by his mother, the Martha Stewart of Hippies, they transform from a normal conservative, mid-western, Catholic family into a clan of liberal, psychedelic-bus-tripping, pot-smoking, nature-loving, California free spirits. And with most dysfunctional families they come with a cost.
Author's Note: “Imagine a 1970’s version of Shameless but with less booze, more weed, and way more hallucinogenics.”
DON’T CALL ME JUPITER PROVIDES AN ACCURATE, VISCERAL, ENTERTAINING, REAL-LIFE PERSPECTIVE INTO THE UPS AND DOWNS OF SURVIVING A HIPPIE CHILDHOOD WITH A NARCISSIST AS A MOTHER. AS YOU DIG DEEPER INTO HIS STRUGGLE YOU LEARN HOW TO FORGIVE WHAT YOU CAN'T FORGET.

horrible ending.... NO ending :(
I highly suggest that the author not be the narrator for 1 thing.
Next, I would try not to linger so long on subjects that were so mondane but move the story along a little bit quicker.
Lastly and most importantly, The book ended abruptly with no ending, literally in the middle of a story. He just said the end go get part two. How brutal is that. After that much time listening to a novel. The reader listener is committed and needs to have a finality to a book. Whether its part one or part two. this ending was a massive disappointment and I felt completely conned.
