Did not love any of the characters. Probably would be a good beach read but I wished more had happened.

Starts pretty slow - I had to go back and reread several times because my mind had wandered. But in the end it was okay. No more, no less.

Not the light hearted beach read I was hoping for. Meh.

Basically a less funny but happier version of *This Is Where I Leave You*.

An okay beach read. However, I felt the character building was weak and I couldn't feel myself get immersed into the story. But it turned out to be an okay book.
