This book was very different from what I had expected based on the cover. I was expecting a humorous family drama, instead, there was quite a tension and mafia-like behavior between all the characters involved. The narrator covers one of two families per chapter, normally alternating, which is not my favorite structure, either. It wasn't easy for me to get into it, but by the end of it I felt like it was okay. [290 pp.]
