    Disappointing
    I was excited to read this book based upon its premise and the support of Maria Semple who called it " brilliant".
    Perhaps it is brilliant YA book. This is the author's first adult book and I would say that her editor did not do her any favors.
    The plot was contrived, the prose stilted, character development weak, and I felt I was reading a script for the Disney channel. I finished the book because I loved the setting and the incredibly precocious character of Sena ( the youngest child ).
    I would recommend this story of hope and resilience and the power of family, to a middle school audience.
