One of those unique books about the workings of families that makes you want to call your own and tell them how much you love them! With different reasons to return home, three adult children find themselves all under their parents roof with their own kids in the mix. The drama quickly follows!
I am intrigued by birth order and how that affects families. As a first born, I easily related to Lillian and her quest for perfection, no matter what situation she found herself in. The other character that struck a chord with me was the mother, Ginny. I could see my mother in her or her in my mother - it made this book even better than I could have imagined.
I love family dramas, but this one was above the rest because the drama wasn't over the top - it was pitch perfect. Each reader can see a characteristic from their own family in this one. This book was my first by Meg Mitchell Moore, but I am already a huge fan.

A fun easy to read family story. Perfect for a quick summer read.
This story addresses parenthood in different stages - the empty nesters who find their nest full again, the loss of a child, the trials and joy of pregnancy and first time parenthood, the strain young children can put on individuals and parents. I found a lot to relate to in the book.
A good debut novel. I look forward to reading more by the author.
