This book was ok, nothing to write home about. It follows a family going on vacation to Spain. The individuals are all going through life changes and we get to see how they deal with the turmoil. Several things are left unresolved in the end but we at least know which way they are headed. The last few sentences summed up the book beautifully and made it worth it for me!

'There was nothing in life harder or more important than agreeing ever morning to stay the course, to go back to your forgotten self of so many years ago, and to make the same decision. Marriages, like ships, need steering, and steady hands at the wheel.' -- page 292
