Review:
Thank you too Beaufort Books for sending me this FREE ARC Copy to promote and review as part of the review crew last year.
This was my first time reading a contemporary fiction novel by Thomas Reed so I wasn't sure what to expect but have to say I really like this book at first but I quickly got bored with two long chapters and nonsense storylines surrounding Cinny's Children and Grandchildren which took away from what the book was about especially when there were political jokes put in there that weren't necessary and it didn't relate to the main storyline.
The characters were fun and interesting to read about. Grace Cinny, Chelsea and Brian were definitely my favorites but I feel like they're backgrounds could have been built up a little more.
The setting was okay but could have been more descriptive especially since Grace and Brian had to travel to other countries to spread their parents ashes.
Overall and okay contemporary novel but could have been so much better!! I will read more by Thomas in the future but I hope his other books aren't like this one was.
