Trigger warning: alcoholism, emotional abuse.
This book is a multiple POV story centered around the extremely wealthy Walsh family following the death of James, the alcoholic patriarch. It's basically a web of people connected to James, and the story alternates between several POVs (both adult and teen) as well as past and present while telling the story of the day before James' death and the days following.
I read this in basically one sitting - as soon as I started reading, I wanted to know what was actually going on, because there's A LOT going on. It's a little triggering if you've experienced alcoholism firsthand, particularly from a parent, so a content warning there even though it's mentioned in the blurb.
Will definitely recommend for the ease of the read and I liked the conclusion!
