I found this story rather sad, it’ll certainly strike a cord with many mums in their late 40’s/50’s who are going through “life”. Empty nest syndrome is a real thing for many and having to care for an elderly parent is brought to life with a real touch of reality. The characters are all flawed (aren’t we all?) and there seems to be one crisis after another. Although the ending is sweet, you know that isn’t how it works long term! This isn’t as funny as many of her books, more down to earth and thought provoking - 3.5 stars from me

Thank you to Netgalley the author and publishers for an arc in exchange for an honest review

I really like this author. This book does not disappoint. Realistic characters keep the story moving quickly. Even the title is intriguing. Family problems…family fun…dysfunctional episodes…what next? The main character is quirky, and even though her family gets to her, at times, she keeps going on. A page turner… A cannot put down novel... Enjoy. Thanks Netgalley.
