EDITORIAL PRAISE

To start with, the author’s expert use of humor and sarcasm really keeps the reader engaged and diffuses the simmering tension underlying relationship-making in big family “dinners that fail to be avoided.” I appreciate how the author used the dinner table as a medium through which to show what, or who, different family members may care about or give less regard to. It feels organic and well reflective of reality.
