Mrs. Everything by Jennifer Weiner
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This book blew me away. I soaked this up. What an awesome summer read. From the first couple of pages I was drawn into the story of the lives of this family. They bring you in, share their secrets, triumphs and losses and captivate you with their story.
I love Jennifer Weiner anyway, but this is up there with one of her best in my opinion, at least for me. I liked the play on Jo and Bethie and the relation of their names to the girls from Little Women. I loved the diverse representation in both character types, whether religion or sexuality and issues. This book has something for everyone who enjoys a generational saga that has a decent pace. There isn't a lot of dragging here, despite the tome-like look of it.
Brilliantly done! Highly recommend!
I've already gotten my finished copy from my independent bookseller.
