Family for Beginners


In my opinion...

Another lovely book by the lovely Sarah Morgan.

Sarah gets under the skin of these incredibly realistic characters & sympathetically deals with family issues in a story which is very much of our time, without being too romantic or wet!

I’d love to be friends with the delightful Flora- a great novel to escape with on a lockdown day.

Who says you can’t choose your family?

When Flora falls in love with Jack, suddenly she’s not only handling a very cranky teenager, but she’s also living in the shadow of Jack’s perfect, immortalised wife, Becca. Every summer, Becca and Jack would holiday with Becca’s oldest friends and Jack wants to continue the tradition, so now Flora must face a summer trying to live up to Becca’s memory, with not only Jack’s daughter looking on, but with Becca’s best friends judging her every move…

The more Flora tries to impress everyone, the more things go horribly wrong…but as the summer unfolds, Flora begins pushing her own boundaries, and finding herself in a way that she never thought she needed to.

And she soon learns that families come in all shapes and sizes.

Thank you Harper Collins for my ARC
