Recenzii

I was lucky enough to receive an advance reading copy of this very special book about a family with a secret. It made me laugh, it made me cry, it made me think.
An astonishing balance of humour, complexity, and above all, kindness
Huge heart, humour and compassion. A sparkling tale about the power of secrets, loyalty and love, this novel is wonderfully engaging, gorgeously written and has characters that will captivate you
Heart-warming and funny... I found this both unputdownable and enlightening. I'm so glad I've read it - I know so much more about life now
A lively and fascinating story of a thoroughly modern family and the giant, multifaceted love that binds them. THIS IS HOW IT ALWAYS IS sparkles with wit and wisdom
An intelligent, life-affirming, emotionally charged story. This is a very relevant read for today's world - it'll make you laugh and cry
Wonderful, magical
Thought-provoking and topical
Written with wry humour and compassion, this is a personal story of parenting, love and understanding
A touching novel
This wise and often funny novel is a compassionate lesson in discovering and welcoming what makes each of us unique
With emotional acuity, admirable bravery, utter compassion, and complete understanding, [Frankel has] created a family attempting to forge a path through one of life's most mystifying challenges: how to define what it is that makes your child who he or she is: unique, beloved, and whole. This is a novel everyone should read. It's brilliant. It's bold. And it's time
A beautiful, thought-provoking novel that will make you think differently about the world
A beguiling tale of a sprawling, loving, ever-changing, unconventional and yet completely typical modern family... Wonderfully moving
A fresh new voice
Deeply satisfying...An intimate family story...Day-to-day parenting dilemmas are where Frankel shines
Sharp and surprising. This is a wonderfully contradictory story - heartwarming and generous, yet written with a wry sensibility
This big-hearted novel about a family with a transgender child is in the lead for the most sensitively and sincerely told story of 2017... Frankel's portrayal of even the most open-hearted parents' doubts and fears around a child's gender identity elevates this novel
A tender, endearingly human piece of work
A heart-warming and bittersweet story of identity and family
Brave, complicated, occasionally horrifying and frequently very funny...Frankel is a first-rate storyteller
