Helpful Score: 3
Add me to the long list of readers who adore this novel! If you haven't read The Guncle, add it to your TBR list now. The story is filled with humor, snark, grief, sadness, found family, biological family, and so much love.
In the midst of family tragedy, 40-ish retired(?) actor Patrick finds himself unexpectedly caring for his young niece and nephew at his luxurious home in Palm Springs. During their 90 days together, Patrick develops strong bonds with his niblings and processes his own grief.
I highly recommend reading this on audio It's narrated by its author Steven Rowley (pronounced roll-ee) who is outstanding at conveying so much personality to Patrick, Maisie, Grant, and the other characters in this delightful novel.
