This book captivated me from the very beginning. The characters were so relatable and real. Emily March has done a masterful job of fleshing out her characters to make the plot sing. When a reader gets ahold of a book like this one, it's hard to put it down to do things like cook, eat, clean house, etc.
Genevieve is tired of her children's shenanigans, but she doesn't quite know what to do about bringing them together as a family. Family "politics" is always a morass to work around, and her four children make it all the more chaotic. When none of them show up for her Thanksgiving feast, she makes a unilateral decision, sells her house, and moves in with her sister in Colorado. She finds her place to regroup and recalibrate her life so that it does not revolve around her kids. Eventually all the children come around and reunite in a way that really touches Genevieve's heart.
There were only a couple of situations that didn't really appeal to me in the book, but overall, it was well worth the read. Four Stars.
Forever (Grand Central) Publishing provided the copy I read for this review. All opinions expressed are solely my own.
