My Rating: A+

Oh my gods. This book was amazing. I highly recommend it to anyone with a family that they don't feel close with. And here's why:

I'm not close with my family, but because of this book I see parts of my family that shows how much closer I am with them than I thought. Doesn't make sense I know, but this book was just...enlightening in that way.
It's a great story with so much to offer. I've read a few reviews of it, and some people said "These events would never happen" and no, they wouldn't. But, I don't think that it's the events themselves that were the point of the book. It was how the people in the book dealt with each other and the events.
This family is screwed up. Yes. They all have some interesting situations. Interesting being too light of a word. But, in a certain sense they are very close too. It's odd.
I read another review that said "I thought my family was dysfunctional" which seemed very generic to me and now that I've read the book I think it doesn't describe the book (not in the obvious way) properly.
Again, this is an A+ book, hell it's better than that. I do recommend it to anyone. I would give you my copy, but I'm sending it to my brother.
