I think this is a good book, but not necessarily a good book for me.
I found the tone indulgently over reflective. The steam of consciousness narration that split into tangets wasn't for me.
It's strongest point, in my opinion, was the dialogue between family members and those relationships. It struck me as very familiar and natural. Complicated and sincere.
