My first Audible Original listen
Lots of family drama, perfect for the holiday season. Was funny and sweet but will pull at your heartstrings too. This family goes through so many ups and downs in such a short story.
About halfway through I started to get annoyed with the main character Sophie. To me she felt judgy and selfish, and like she forgot other people have lives and feelings too. But by the end I was so happy I listened to this novella, it was a perfect story for thanksgiving weekend.
