'Wise and wonderful' VERONICA HENRY

The McKenzies are your average complicated family: knotted together by in-jokes, arguments and a few closely-guarded secrets.

This book is all about how a family each get through the loss of their daughter/sister after her shock death in an accident, but I wouldn't call it a sad book, even with that subject matter. Each works through their grief in their own way and comes out the other side a much closer family. A very enjoyable read.
