FORECAST: Storm clouds are on the horizon
Oscar, the weather-obsessed patriarch of the Alvarado family, desperately wants a little rain. L.A. is parched, dry as a bone, and he’s harboring a costly secret that distracts him from everything else. His wife, Keila, desperate for a life with a little more intimacy and a little less Weather Channel, feels she has no choice but to end their marriage.
Their three daughters—Claudia, a television chef with a hard-hearted attitude; Olivia, a successful architect who suffers from gentrification guilt; and Patricia, a social media wizard who has an uncanny knack for connecting with audiences but not with her lovers—are left questioning everything they know. Each will have to take a critical look at her own relationships and make some tough decisions along the way.

Another Reece's book of the month read! Always enjoy her book club recommendations!
This is about a year in the life of a middle class Mexican American family living in L.A.
Good characters thru out. You can't help rooting for this family! David N.
Relatable and realistic while still interesting and filled with fun references and captivating life event plot points, The Alvarado family is somehow both unique and everyday, filled with charm, fun culture, and LA goodness.
