4.0

Probably more of a 3.5. This was chaos right from the beginning. I liked the plot of “it takes a village” to raise a child. But I found Felicity and Russel just too dang unlikable. Melinda was my favorite in all of her conniving ways.

This Needs To Be A Movie

At first I thought I was going to hate this book. Starting the book off with Felicity was... a choice. But if "trust the process" was a book, this embodies it. 

This book truly shows character growth and I adored it. Grandma Evelyn was actually one of my absolute favorites in the end. Melinda's antics were hilarious.

This needs to be turned into a movie ASAP. And Diane Keaton and Jane Fonda need to play in it.
