pickI really enjoy Wilson‘s writing & was excited this was one of the options for the #BiteSizedBooks portion of the #GoodreadsChallenge! This quick family drama starts with Mad in TN, who is shocked to have a half-brother show up in a PT Cruiser—& news that their dad has more children & is in CA. A sibling road trip ensues with the climax proving that it‘s not so much the destination as the journey. Funny moments, big secrets & room to define family!

Loved hearing Wilson speak, then meeting him afterward, recently in Nashville! He‘s so funny, quirky, and sweet. This was not my fave of his, but still enjoyable.
I hadn't read Wilson before and this was quieter than I was expecting. Quietly amusing, quietly revealing, quietly affecting. Perhaps a bit thinner than it could be, but I quietly enjoyed it.

pickThere is nature vs. nurture, and then there are the things that shape us because we don‘t have them. For the.Hills children, that absence is their father and when they go on a cross-country road trip to meet each other and confront him, they realize what it means to be family and what home truly is. I absolutely loved this. Each character felt so real and distinct. I was happy to be along for the ride on this adventure.
pickThis enemies to lovers road trip book takes the characters from one national park to another. It was a perfect fit for the trip I just took as we visited many of the same places. It was spicier than I expected, but I loved the characters, former high school rivals, and they way they pushed each other and became a safe place for each other to be vulnerable as they process grief. Recommended if you want a romance that takes place on a trip out west.
'Look,' I said. 'We went wrong somewhere.'
Martha turned her head and couldn't believe what she saw. On the horizon, in all its unreality, was the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
'It's tiny,' she said. 'Like a replica in an amusement park.
"That's it all right. I can say with some confidence that we're not in Florence.'

What are you supposed to write....When tanks are rolling into cities where friends of yours live? What are you supposed to write when you realise you don't understand the world any more - I mean in an absolutely fundamental way - when all your certainties collapse, when you realise that the bubble you live in is just that, a bubble that could burst any minute?'
