I usually enjoy books where most or all of the characters are bad people - but this one was just ok for me. It was an easy and quick read and the writing flowed well as the author took us through two point of views. The court disposition chapters didn't feel like they added much value to the story. The twist was decent but it just felt like most of the book was mediocre. Still glad I read it though since it was a pretty quick read.

The sun is starting to go down on another scorching day here. Going to try and finish the tagged book while enjoying a cold drink on the deck.

A beautiful evening to sit in the backyard with a good book. Reading while listening to nature and sipping on a lemonade after the kids are in bed. Should be a nice, relaxing evening.

I figured out the “twists” in this book and found it hard to like any of the characters. It‘s not one I will recommend to others but it was a fast read that I didn‘t feel I lost too much time finishing. On to the next!

Finished off the tagged audiobook (which I really enjoyed), and jumped straight into the next one! I finally started on my 4th paint colour, but I‘ve got 24 more to go 😂 +16 pts for #teamslaughter

It‘s rare that I enjoy a book so much when I can‘t stand any of the characters. They are truly appalling. Told from two points of view, with present and past events, interspersed with court transcripts, it follows a family dealing with a serious white collar crime jail sentence for misleading off-label pharmaceutical marketing. It‘s greed, selfishness, blind love of family. There is a lot of brand name dropping. A fun read, for sure.

A Good Family is AH Kim's debut novel. It is a family drama that kept me captivated.

The author deftly weaves the dual POV, and the present with the flashbacks. There's Hannah, who will do what she needs to do to help her brother, especially now that his wife is in prison, and he needs to raise their two daughters himself. Then there's Beth, Hannah's sister-in-law, who won't she sacrifice to get a head.
