ivi_reads_books's review against another edition
4.25
This book shows what happens when in a family everyone's cup is empty. Little compassion for one another and lots of arguing and accusations ensue. Family secrets are revealed that everyone has to grapple with.
At the same time this book is not hopeless and shows resiliency.

Restart 4% (17 of 280) - What a difference a mood makes. I'm really enjoying this intro the second time around.
26% (77 of 280) - I'm enjoying the sassy stories but I'm not appreciating the sadness. I'm going to need a break.
72% (206) - This should be totally predictable but I'm slow, I get so caught up in the dialogue I don't think about what's next. It gives me Terry McMillan vibes.
83% (236) - I'm not sure yet, but it may be leaving the 4 star zone.
