This was a quick read, which is exactly what I was looking for between more heavy book club picks. I liked the story even though I didn't love the characters. It made me reflect and think about aging and family dynamics, as well as brought to mind a theme we recently discussed in my book club about “perfect families”, and how, more often than not, there isn't a lot of perfect beneath the public face of that family.
