Ultimately this book didn't win me over. It would have benefited from a faster start to get you hooked and slicker editing because though it's not excessively long, I thought it could have been tighter and told in fewer pages.
Thanks go to the publishers for sending us this book. For family drama that's a little more poignant, why not peek at [[Night Road by Kirstin Kristin Hannah]] or if you're intent on having the mother's perspective, [[Every Last One by Anna Quindlen]] has a narrator whose life is just as trashed but who doesn't demand pity in quite the same way as this lot.
