Review: The Nest

The Nest by Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book is currently getting a lot of praise. I personally enjoyed it, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a reflective story about family and the power it can have on each other. 4 siblings waiting to receive "the nest" a substantial sum of money their father put away for them but ended up growing to an immense amount. Instead of focusing on what was right in front of the them, the Plumb family members, Leo, Bea, Jack and Melody were waiting for "the nest" to make everything alright in regards to their personal lives. That is until Leo finds himself in a great deal of trouble and the nest is used to help him out. This family has been broken before, but with the nest nearly gone how will they resolve their personal family relationships with the ones they love as well as with each other? A thoughtful and reflective book that has a conclusion in which a reader will feel satisfied and not wondering "what next."
