review 1: The 4 Haas children grow up without the benefits of concerned and loving parents. Their mother is a struggling actress; their father a writer who managed to pen a Tony Award winning play once. This story focuses on each of the 4 children's lives, how they interact with each other and their parents, and how, ultimately, their resilience and the strength of their bonds bring them together. There is a certain endearing quality to this novel. The characters are most definitely flawed...but then nobody is perfect...making them easy to relate to.
review 2: As I started reading this book from the POV of Amy, one of four siblings in this story I really didn't like how the story was written {each sibling, plus their mom has several chapters told from their POV}or the ba
... moresic story itself, but as I moved onto George, Kate, Finn {the other siblings} and lastly their mom, I felt myself being drawn into this sometime graphic and sad storyline. Got to the point that I couldn't put the book down because I wanted to know what was going to happen next....if I had put this down in the middle of the first chapter and stopped reading it, I would have given it one star....if you find yourself not liking this book in the beginning try to get through it....the story in my opinion does pick up and at the end of the book I found myself cheering for this dysfunctional family who found their own way to being functional by the end of the book, and enjoying the book, therefore the four stars! less

Meh. Started off strong, then things derailed. The end was a little too nice and tidy.
