A Nearly Normal Family by M.T. Edvardsson

3.0

Find yourself idolizing that seemingly perfect family? If so you may want to pick up this book that shows the cracks in the facade of a family structure that at first appears serene. A pastor father who has been faithful to his call. A lawyer mother strong in her occupation and confident in her bearing. A teenage daughter, beautiful in appearance but going through the seemingly normal trials of adolescence. This nearly, normal families facade starts to crack when a man is found murdered and police come around with questions. Told in three sections each done by one of the family members we start to get a glimpse of the dysfunctional yet loving family. The author does a good job of painting what it is like to love one's family through the tough times. The who done it was done fairly well and kept you wanting to read to the end. The narrator did an excellent job of building suspense and making the novel enjoyable. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy for a honest review.
