I am sorry for not reviewing fully but I don’t have the time to read this anymore. I believe that it wouldn't benefit you as a publisher or your book if I only skimmed it and wrote a rushed review. Again, I am sorry for not fully reviewing!

Black-market adoptions, drug addictions, a cop-turned-classics-professor, cancer, death-by-Thanksgiving-turkey, opera, post-natal depression, ancient scripts, the war in Iraq, failing marriages, secret families... There was so much going on in this book. In fact, it had everything but emotional reflection. A fairly big omission, I reckon.

1.5/5 The only thing I liked was the cover (which I think is really, really beautiful).

I received my copy of Happy Family from the publisher, Little, Brown & Company, via NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.
