I quite enjoyed this easy read of a quirky main character and his life and relationships. Well written and just enough happening so you don't get bored with the storyline 

I am a longtime fan of Tyler’s and this book is smack in her wheelhouse. I quite enjoyed it, even if Micah needed a good smack. I loved all these characters but especially Micah’s extended family, and their shenanigans. And the discussion they have about how some adults’ lives mimic their childhoods, while some create their lives in direct opposition to their upbringing - so great, so spot-on.

I received an early review copy through Netgalley.

a great book for lovers of nothing happened in this book
fast-paced

Para não variar, Anne Tyler continua exímia a relatar histórias mundanas, relatando-nos o seu dia-a-dia e as relações com tudo o que as rodeia, e nas quais nos conseguimos identificar com algumas características dos seus personagens. Neste livro, conseguiu levar essa sua característica ao limite brindando-nos com uma história morna, insípida, e que não conduz a lado nenhum. Vale pelo menos pela capacidade descritiva (quase exaustiva) de uma vida vulgaríssima.
Lê-se.
