All Adults Here by Emma Straub

5.0

In the first sentence of this book, Astrid, a woman in her mid-sixties, witnesses the tragic death of an acquaintance her own age. The sudden finality of it shocks Astrid into a series of changes, changes that reverberate through the lives of her children. I loved most of this book- it is by turns heartbreaking and hilarious- but I think I’ve read too many books of this type recently, because it dragged a bit towards the end. Four and a half stars rounded up.
