For fans of The Glass Castle, Hillbilly Elegy & Educated, comes a true coming-of-age story of psychedelic adventure.

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.

Devastating family drama, abandonment, and drugs are balanced with laugh-out-loud humor that will keep you turning pages. You'll laugh, cry, cringe, and beg for more.

And as with most dysfunctional families, they come with a cost.

The Don't Call Me Jupiter memoir series is like a 1970s version of Shameless-less booze, more weed, and way more hallucinogenics.
