Reunion by Hannah Pittard
271 Pages
This is a short novel about Kate Pulaski who has made a series of bad decisions in her life. When her father dies she travels to Atlanta to meet with her two siblings to make the final arrangements. Their father had been married 5 times and there are a number of half-siblings to deal with as well as the various ex-wives. Kate has never really come to grips with her relationship with her father and the tough childhood she had and this is partially the cause of her current series of misfortunes.
A book of family dysfunction, Pittard weaves a story with a slight snarkiness and realistics relationships. The only flaw I found with the novel is that it wasn't longer.
