They're a glamorous family, the Caseys. Johnny Casey, his two brothers Ed and Liam, their beautiful, talented wives and all their kids spend a lot of time together--birthday parties, anniversary celebrations, weekends away. And they're a happy family. Johnny's wife, Jessie--who has the most money--insists on it. Under the surface, though, conditions are murkier. While some people clash, other people like each other far too much . . . Still, everything manages to stay under control--that is, until Ed's wife, Cara, gets a concussion and can't keep her thoughts or opinions to herself. One careless remark at Johnny's birthday party, with the entire family present, and Cara starts spilling all their secrets.

It took me a while to get into this book. The characters seemed too stereotypical with pithy comments and witty comebacks. Even the children seems to express themselves too easily. With over 500 pages, this book is also an invitation to settle in - and I finally did. I started to care for the characters - their big flaws started to become more nuanced and the decisions that lead to their actions a bit more evident. Then I let myself be carried by the plot and made it through to the end.
I did struggle a bit with the Irish expression mingled with modern lingo but that made it a fun sociological exercise.
DId I love this book? Did I hate it? No, it's somewhere plumb in the middle: a good read for something not too strenuous. ( )
