One Big Happy Family by Jamie Day

A reading of their father's will at the Bishop family’s luxurious hotel brings everyone together.

They really do not like each other, have secrets, and haven’t seen each other for a while.

Most likely it will be a stormy reading along with the hurricane that is predicted to arrive in a few days.


As the family waits for the attorney to arrive they can hear the wind howling and the waves crashing outside.


There is also a lot of noise inside with the feuding siblings and a maid who is hiding a guest that happened to appear out of the blue and says she needs a place to hide from her abusive boyfriend.


When the will is read, there is a huge outburst because of the distribution.


How will it all turn out? Or should we say:  Who will win out - the storm, the siblings, or neither one?


Things get crazier as the family gets crazier, and a few of the group won’t be leaving.


ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY was a little slow at first, and I lost interest when the book gave background information on the characters, but the current-day storyline is intense and good. 4/5


Thank you to the publisher for a copy of this book.  All opinions are my own.
