amyteurhour's review
3.5
The beginning when Rose is still in elementary/early middle school reminded me a little of Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. This was pretty melancholy to read, which of course makes sense given the title. What I was not expecting was how each of the family members are isolated and lonely in their own way. There were definitely points, especially near the end, that I thought: if only they communicated with each other, they wouldn't have to suffer so much. But I did kind of see how it was in character for them. The audiobook was read by the author, and I thought Bender did fine.
Graphic: Infidelity
