Greta & Valdin
by Rebecca K Reilly
funny
reflective
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Loveable characters:
Yes
Diverse cast of characters:
Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
Valdin & Greta are adult siblings who we follow for 6ish to 12ish months in New Zealand. This felt like reading a mini series a la Modern Family or Schitt’s Creek. Charming and funny while having sincerely touching moments, the entire blended queer Māori-Russian-Catalonian family is a hoot (and so complicated the character list at the beginning definitely comes in handy)
Greta is finishing up her grad program while dating
Valdin is trying to get over his ex (who is also his Uncle’s brother-in-law)
Other family members are estranged, runaways, polyamorous, coming out.
Reminded me of Gunk Baby, The Rachel Incident, All This Could Be Different
Thank you to Avid Reader Press for the copy, all thoughts are my own
