Absolutely loved this story of a family going through a pivotal time in 2016 leading up to the election. The characters and scenarios were interesting enough to keep me going but realistic enough to make me feel deeply connected. I'm surprised this one isn't getting more acclaim--it reminds me of some of Ann Patchett's most effective writing.
