This book follows a family helmed by a conservative Christian 7th Day Adventist father and his goes along wife and their kids, especially the youngest, Patsy. We see them across decades, through secrets and hypocrisies. I really liked this. I think this is Zevin‘s debut and I‘m not surprised it‘s good.

This was first published in 2010 but was just re-released yesterday. Audio narration was excellent and the story had a lot going for it. Towards the middle it lost some of its charm but ultimately the book proved to be satisfying. The story of a family dealing with financial, emotional and spiritual challenges that continue to ripple over the decades. Writing was fresh & clever in some spots, but at other times it became more of a challenge.

squirrelbrain Great review though! 😁 2y
Megabooks Wonderful review! 2y
Cinfhen Thanks friends @TrishB @Megabooks @squirrelbrain It‘s a #BorrowNotBuy and certainly not as good as her later books, but you could see the budding writer in her was developing 2y

****UPDATE***** This book is apparently a re-release 🤷🏼‍♀️but I‘m still enjoying it 💕

Cinfhen I LOVED Young Jane Young!!!!! @CBee and this one is giving me similar vibes @Megabooks !!! I can‘t believe this was COMPLETELY off my #NewReleaseRadar 2y
CBee @Cinfhen can‘t wait to read it! 2y
Cinfhen So after checking out GoodReads it seems this book is a re- release @Megabooks @CBee but I‘m still LOVING IT 😊 Maybe this is the first time it‘s being offered on audio 🤷🏼‍♀️ 2y
Hooked_on_books After the success of T3 raising her profile, I‘m not at all surprised they would start rereleasing some prior books. As they should! I‘m sure there are some serious gems in her backlist. 2y
Cinfhen It‘s a short audio @Hooked_on_books and you are right that her agent and publisher are capitalizing on GZ recent success unfortunately this one is not a gem!! The first part was really good but now the second half the book is falling apart😖I feel played!!! 2y
peaKnit I just saw it was new to Audible and thought the same thing! But yes, 2010. I put a hold on it at the library, hooked in after Tomorrow x 3. 2y
peaKnit @Cinfhen ack! I placed a hold on the e-version, I may still wade into it lol! Let us know how it ends for you. 2y

It is lucky she thinks that we don't feel all the love inside us every moment. We couldn't breathe or walk or eat. It is lucky that it just flares up every now and again then resolves itself into a manageable dormancy.
