A lighthearted, partly predictable read following what looks like an odd group of people from an outside perspective. There were times when you could guess what was going to happen, but there were also enough surprises or little twists to the predictability that made it enjoyable. 

 I did think that the time jump between the last two chapters felt a bit too soon. 
After Libby bring so stressed about her labour, it felt a bit jarring to go straight to 'everything is wonderful now and all tied up in a bow'.
