I enjoyed this book, when I picked this up I didn’t realise it was set in the 90s (is that historical fiction)?  The storyline was entertaining and I enjoyed the banter and dynamics between the family members. The main character was at times annoyingly meek but I get that it was there for character growth and she does grow some courage. I will be picking up the rest of the series to follow the rest of the family
