5.0

The House of Broken Angels is beautiful and hilarious and poignant story of family: loud, annoying, messy, loving, hurtful, and right on time. Set in Southern California, with side trips to Tijuana, and told from multiple points of view, it lets everyone have their say, which is what we all want, right? Highly recommended.
