The Family Remains - Lisa Jewell
She read
Publication Date: August 9, 2022
This sequel picks up where Jewell’s The Family Upstairs left off and continues the stories of the main characters still alive (and one who was murdered), as well as introducing some new players. The plot is too intricate to try to quickly summarize. Suffice it to say that fans of the first book will enjoy learning more about the survivors and their offspring from that house of horrors in Chelsea thirty years ago.
While it will help if you have read The Family Upstairs, I think this one can work as a standalone.
Written in dual timelines and from a few points of view, it took a while to draw me in. Well written, with colorful characters, the plot is a bit over the top, but it was eventually an engrossing, enjoyable, sometimes dark, read.
