The FLB LA is there, but it's in hidden corners and around the edges and you sort of have to stumble across it or know where it is to find it past the suburban plastic.
On the other hand, I remember just how homesick those books made me my first year of college. (Don't get me wrong, I love the Twin Cities and they have their own sort of magic, but some days I wanted home. And the Weetzie Bat books were like this other window into home for me. It wasn't quite the home I knew, but it was a few blocks over from it.)
