(4) YA In this slice-of-life sequel to Jason's Women, the teenager must contend with his father's remarriage and, in a predictable subplot, a seemingly perfect new stepbrother. Jason's Internet relationship with a Hawaiian girl adds topicality and comes to a realistic conclusion, but his involvement in a Unitarian church, where he learns lessons about community and self-esteem, has a deus ex machina quality.
