4 stars

When Rupert Flakes dies, his wife and five sons are bereft and confused when a strange woman claims that her two grown sons are his, everyone begins to rethink their past. This book is told from the perspectives of most the family and they are all interesting characters. Rupert and his wife Eleanor are especially well developed and have a dry wit that is so entertaining to read. Really, there is not much plot involved and it ends rather suddenly but as a character study of one family and the different parts and past lives that make up that family, it is really exceptional. I received this book from the Blogging for Books program in exchange for an honest review.
