It’s a sweet story. I found Ricki to be a bit irksome. Would’ve loved more time with Ms. Della. Overall, good, but I’m definitely not the target audience for this book so it feels wrong to rate it.

This is a good story about a family of very flawed people who have terrible communication skills. It’s a decent drama  if you’re not put off by the characters’ unlikeability at times.

I enjoyed Miss Glory and her shady shenanigans a lot! She cracked me up and she cracked the case! I look forward to her sleuthing and fussing at people for many more books. And, of course, props to Bahni Turpin for bringing the characters the life like only she can. 
funny hopeful informative inspiring medium-paced

I loved her approach to this book. It’s a serious topic but she made it easy and sometimes funny. This is worth the read or the listen. I recommend the audio since it’s self-narrated and done well.
