The Vacationers by Emma Straub
4.0

I am completely surprised by how much I liked this book. Much better than the usual dysfunctional family takes a vacation story, with real characters that I related to easily. I liked how the story was told with so much empathy for the characters' perspective and through their narrow world views - even when they did stupid things or made bad decisions, I understood where they were coming from.
