by Shari Lapena

I just finished reading “Not a Happy Family”, by Shari Lapena and I was not disappointed. It was a fast paced easy read full of twists and turns that kept me on my toes.
A Domestic thriller about siblings who are set to inherit millions after their parents are found murdered. The father was a total jerk to his children, so the three siblings are all considered suspects.
What follows is a series of revealed secrets that lead the reader down a delicious path of lies and deceit and red herrings until…the truth is uncovered.
Shari Lapena knows how to engage and keep her audience. She does an excellent job or creating not so perfect characters who have something to hide, and make them interesting to the reader.
This book was read quickly, and I found most of the story lines were tied up nicely at the end. The author did an excellent job of providing each main character with a great backstory to explain their action or inaction. At one point, any of the main characters could have done it, but I liked how the story was tied it up in the end.
Another great book by Shari Lapena that everyone who likes this genre should read.
Happy Reading everyone!
