This was an excellent book. I can see it being a read with Jenna or Reese’s book club pick. It has so much more depth than other books that have been coming out. I also love family drama, secrets, etc because it’s relatable in some level!

This is a debut novel. When I read it, I knew I'd like to read more by Heather Aimee O'Neill.

Three adult sisters grapple with a shared tragedy over a Thanksgiving weekend spent in their childhood home, navigating complex relationships and old tensions. Each sister is dealing with her own issues during this weekend, but the heartbreaking event is what happened twenty years prior. Their brother was involved in a boating accident that killed their neighbor's son.

I enjoyed her writing style, and that it was written in different point of views. Highly recommend.

Thanks to Netgalley, the publisher, and the author for the ARC to review. All opinions are my own.

I thoroughly enjoyed this debut from Heather Aimee O'Neill. It was a beautiful exploration of grief and the ways in which it impacts a family. I appreciated the way Heather was able to write complicated characters who at times could be incredibly frustrating on the page, but I still found myself rooting for them and their healing. I also loved that it didn't necessarily get wrapped up in a bow at the end, but as in life, nothing is. A great debut and I can't wait to read more from Heather in the future.

I enjoyed this book, although there were a lot of characters to keep track of. I think this would make a good series, concentrating on what me character at a time.

Three adult sisters have to come to terms with the past and well as the future during Thanksgiving. I enjoyed this one as I love novels about messy family relationships.

I loved this story about a family living after a tragedy that took place years prior. This is story of forgiveness, moving on and acceptance. Had the same feels as Hello Beautiful and Blue Sisters. I could not put it down!

The Irish Goodbye is a touching family drama that dives deep into grief, guilt, and the complicated bonds between sisters. The Ryan women feel real—flawed, stubborn, and trying their best to navigate old wounds while dealing with new struggles. The writing is rich, and the Long Island setting adds a nostalgic, atmospheric feel. Some plot points are a little predictable, and a few emotional moments feel a bit heavy-handed, but overall, it’s an engaging, heartfelt read. If you love messy family dynamics and stories about forgiveness, this one is worth picking up.

I loved this book. This book brought me right into the story of this family who is struggling at Thanksgiving. It was so relatable with aging parents, siblings trying to find their way with their lives and that of their children, a past tragedy and death of a child. I felt each person's anguish and joy. I am so thankful that I picked this book and that I was pick to read it. It will definitely be on my suggestion list for my bookish friends.

As soon as I saw this title I knew I wanted to read it and was glad to get it thru NetGalley. Another dysfunctional Irish family and this one unearths a lot when 3 sisters reunite for Thanksgiving at their elderly parents home, Each one of the sisters along with the parents buried a lot of secrets after experiencing trauma twice! It’s heartbreaking but can see see some hope at the end of this debut novel

I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but I really appreciated the deep, contemplative tones of this book. I had recently finished a lot of " brain candy" beachy reads, and this got me all up in my feelings! I really enjoyed this, and will be buying copies for my friends!

a rekindling of sisterhood, with lots of history and angst thrown in. Must admit I did skim a bit, but did want to see how it ends. Would recommend and would be a good beach read.

So many books about Irish dysfunctional families, so many tales of past accidents affecting the living-this pretty much sums up this title. Interesting in a way. Most likely a
Good beach read as there is nothing too deep in the messaging. And as an aside-please stop with the multi page acknowledgements!
