I enjoyed this book about a highly dysfunctional family. I liked reading about their problems and what they tried to do in order to combat their demons. The story doesn’t have a strong plot line or much resolution at all, but it follows a family at odds with each other who realizes they need each other. It was touching and heartbreaking and touched on a lot of heavy topics like miscarriage, suicide, infidelity, parenting, coming-out, adulting, alcoholism, drugs, fame, and truth.
