Family Family: A Novel | Laurie Frankel

As an adoptive parent, I felt incredibly seen by this book. As Frankel herself points out, it‘s vanishingly rare to see adoption portrayed in the media as a source of a (complicated, human) joy.

I'd be more inclined to call this a poem with illustrations. The rhyming couplet certainly feature in children's books, but something about the wording and the content (very young readers might have to be reassured at one point that the bunnies will be okay) feels more like a poem that many ages would identify with. Something earthy, yet ethereal, delicately organic, about the art. If you're looking for seasonal reads, try this one in winter!

Family Family: A Novel | Laurie Frankel

As a big fan of Laurie Frankel, my verdict for this one is: good but not great. Frankel always writes about family in a compelling way, but I found her to be more didactic than usual (especially the end). And while I loved the witty writing style, it felt like everyone- adults, kids, etc- had the same voice. It was sort of like Aaron Sorkin (💗) dialogue: clever and snappy but a little too perfect to feel believable.

This is quite the rollercoaster of a thriller, taking the reader on an exhilarating ride with an exciting cat and mouse chase at its heart. It‘s definitely a page turner with plenty of twists and turns. Action packed and well written, I can well imagine this edge of your seat nail-biter being adapted into an entertaining film/movie. Audiences would be glued to the screen. #Pigeonhole

Family Family: A Novel | Laurie Frankel

Alongside This is How it Always Is, this is my second slam dunk read from Frankel. Here, she explodes the concept too many people have of what family “should” be and shows how families can look quite different. It veers dangerously close to sentimentality at the end, but I just loved it and didn‘t want to stop listening.

Cathythoughts Sounds good. I have it stacked 👍🏻❤️ 7mo
