Grace's Table by Sally Piper

3.0

This book takes us seamlessly through Grace’s past, as she reflects on the last 70 years of her low, whilst preparing a huge meal for 12 members of her family and friends.
This book is written in a way that gives you Grace’s life story, almost without you realising you’re going through it.

I think Sally Piper writes complex family dynamics so well, all in the small details and conversations people have when they’ve known each other for several decades.

I really enjoyed this book, and thought Grace’s life seemed full and rich and complex.
I almost felt like it snuck up on me, how well I knew this character because it’s done so smoothly!

A great read for anyone who loves character stories, and family dynamics and a bit of drama
