Charlotte is a quiet medical researcher with a fondness for herbal remedies. Her vibrant, globe-trotting sculptor mother passes away and leaves some startling news in her will: Charlotte's father, long explained away as having died years ago, is alive and well. And as a condition to receiving her inheritance, Charlotte and her newfound father must live together in her mother's SoHo loft for an entire year.
As fantastic as the description sounds, this is an absorbing book with characters that are pretty believable and down-to-earth. Charlotte plays computer games. She takes a beginners' acting class and suffers through the work. She dreads finding a bug in her apartment, and sprays Raid like this: "spraying and spraying and spraying, the way people shoot people in the movies, over and over again, emptying their guns, way after the targets are dead..."
An enjoyable read.
