She read

Taking place over three days in June, this is the story of Gail Baines, a sixtyish, divorced, socially awkward mother of the bride as she negotiates the day before, day of, and day after the wedding. Her ex, Max, shows up unexpectedly at her door with a foster cat, there is an unexpected crisis between the soon to be wed couple, and a family secret is revealed. On top of that, she may have lost her job and hasn’t been invited to her daughter’s spa day.

Anne Tyler is a master of poignant, astute and amusing observations of relationships and life. Full of interesting and well developed characters,  this is a short novel; the writing flows so smoothly that it is easily read in one day. A true delight!

Thanks to #NetGalley and @aaknopf for the DRC.
