Review: A Thoroughly Enjoyable Book! - I loved this book and was always eager to return to it whenever I had a few minutes. The characters were believable and very relatable. At times it seemed so close to my own life, I felt somehow part of the story. Briefly, it was about a family taking one last grand tour of Europe before they go their own ways, the son off to college and a grown-up, independent life, the wife, seeing no need to remain it a marriage that isn't making her happy, and the husband, very intelligent, very pompous, and clueless, who doesn't want the marriage to end. There are times when it is very funny and times when it is so sad. But in essence, it was a very real story that I could relate to and become deeply involved in. One of the best books I've read in a long time.
Review: Are we there yet? - A feel-good book. Looked forward to each opportunity to read it, knowing I would thoroughly enjoy the experience. So often books on family relationships focus on the dreary aspects of family bickering, looming divorce possibilities, coming-of age-angst. This novel features all those characteristics, but with a quirky, upbeat, witty emphasis. The writing style is clear, concise, and amusing. Douglas and Connie, the man and wife, seem "real" - and a Grand Tour of Europe in an attempt to salvage the marriage and bond with Albie, the 17-YO offspring, doesn't stretch the bounds of credibility. Several scenarios seem unlikely, but, hey, this is a work of fiction and the author can do with the characters as he likes (or possibly the characters can lead the author around by the nose?). Albie is presented as the typical (stereotypical?) teenager. There are good reasons why he has a strained relationship with his dad, but I wish that Nicholls could have given a bit more attention to Albie's personality, thoughts, and goals (if any). I highly recommend any book written by David Nicholls, and put this one at the top of the list. "Us" won't give you profound insights into the meaning of life, but it will raise your spirits and help you realize that family relationships can be dysfunctional and still produce some tender moments. (4-1/2 stars).

### ⭐⭐⭐ an easy read on a quiet afternoon
*by H***R on December 14, 2014*

an easy read on a quiet afternoon. Well developed storyline, nice to see how art is incorporated - great to read about las Meninas, an amazing painting ! I liked the mild irony and humour, some events are a bit farfetched, but made me smile nevertheless. And that's what this book does : put a smile (and a grin) on your face
