Finding Audrey

Cute, fun story that attempts to tackle some series mental health issues and most of the time succeeds. At least as far as it can in a story that uses humor and family chaos to tell a story. This book is at it's best when it focuses on the crazy yet normal (c'mon, we've all had those moments with family where we don't know whether to run and hide or roll our eyes and laugh) events in the every day life of Audrey's family.

My one issue with this book is the giant elephant in the room - what brought Audrey and by extension her family to the point where the book begins. It's talked about/mentioned continuously but never explained. I don't know that I needed every minute detail about whatever happened with those girls at school, but a little more explanation might have been helpful. It would have let me connect with Audrey a little bit more.
