An enjoyable family drama

If We're Being Honest is an extended family drama debut novel set in the small town of Eulalia, Georgia. The story follows the Williams family as they gather for a funeral and then a wedding over the course of one week. Gerry, their 82-year-old beloved husband, father and grandfather has died suddenly from a heart attack. His best friend, while giving Gerry's eulogy, reveals a shocking secret. We follow each family member as they deal with personal struggles, family dynamics, and their new understanding of Gerry and grief at his loss. Their stories range from funny to heartwarming to sad. Initially, it was difficult to keep track of the large cast of characters, so a family tree or character list would have been helpful. The chapters were quite long. If We're Being Honest was well written and enjoyable. I became invested in the characters and couldn't put it down. I liked the ending and the LBGTQ+ representation. Thank you to Celadon Books for a copy to review.
