Have you ever read a book that you have a hard time putting into words your thoughts about it? Family Lore is that book for me.  I loved this book, it was beautiful, sad, hopeful, and heartwarming.  I loved the generational stories, they reminded me of hearing the stories from different generations in my own family.  Family Lore is a must-read and an amazing adult genre debut from one of my favorite authors.
