I read a fabulous memoir in a day over the weekend. The book is called The Kids Are All Right: A Memoir by Diana, Liz, Amanda and Dan Welch. It is the story of the Welch family growing up after a tough family situation. The Welch children were orphaned after their father died in a car crash and their mother died from cancer. The story follows the children selling the family home, sending the youngest sibling to live with another family and going there separate ways in life. After years of being apart, the Welch siblings finally come back together as a family. I loved the writing style of the book. Each sibling wrote a chapter and the story fell into place. I highly recommend this book. Hopefully you'll love it as much as I did.
