Excellent Read...

I love Ann Tyler, and this is absolutely one of my favorite books. She takes the time to develop each character with such depth and detail that you expect to find the Whitshanks living next door in your own neighborhood. The story starts in the present and somehow seamlessly works backwards to expand into the roots of the family tree. I pick up this book each time I'm about to take a long flight and it keeps me engaged each and every time! I definitely recommend this one! Although the ending could have been better, I still give it an excellent rating.
