funny hopeful medium-paced
Loveable characters: Yes

This was Holiday movie but make it exchange for family. We have Lucy's family that experienced a scandal and in need to get away. At the same time, Greta in looking for a place to live while her husband reaches in Texas. 

They exchange homes for the summer and we see their lives unfold in Texas and Germany. 

The story is full of laughs and miscommunication. 

The full cast of narrators (Patti Murin, Lisa Flanagan, Jennifer Jill Araya, Kevin R. Free, Pete Simonelli) made it easy to follow the different POV. 

Thank you @simonaudio @atriabooks for a copy of the book.
