Family generally aren’t typical. Or normal. Neither is this one. The story balances humor with emotional depth as the main character, Natalie navigates complicated sibling relationships, long-buried guilt, and unexpected twists. The book even includes an intriguing marine biologist. Overall, it’s a compelling exploration of messy families and personal growth and it makes for an engaging and bittersweet read. I read this around the holidays and it made me feel better about my own life.
