Even when Casey Jones Caruso lost her twin brother Sammy to an overdose, and their foursome became a threesome, the squad picked each other up. But when Casey’s feeling for the remaining members—Francesca and Benjamin—develop into romantic attraction, she worries the truth will dissolve them and vows to ignore her heart.

Eloise "Lou" Hansen is graduating from Columbia University summa cum laude, and she's ready to conquer the world.

Shelly "Mama Shell" Hansen, on the other hand, is ecstatic, and just as determined to keep her at home. Who else will help her hide her latest binge-shopping purchases from her husband, go to SoulCycle with her, and hold her hand during Botox shots?

Et quand sonnera enfin l'armistice, le 11 novembre 1918, toutes les familles auront versé leur tribut de deuil à la Grande Guerre.

La Provence, c'est pour Daudet une certaine réalité morale, dont il dégage l'originalité. Cette réalité c'est, par-delà la pauvreté et la rudesse de ces existences, un goût méditerranéen de la vie. C'est aussi, par contraste avec la futilité des sentiments parisiens, un relief dû à la puissance des passions qui animent le peuple : passion de Maître Cornille acharné à nier le temps présent et à maintenir malgré tout son moulin en activité ; passion naïve et têtue de Blanquette, la petite chèvre, pour la liberté et le grand mystère de la montagne.
