Fun for the Whole Family by Jennifer E. Smith

This was my first read of 2025, & what aa way to start a year of reading. I used to read Jennifer E. Smith’s romance novels as a teenager, & I am blown away with her new voice. This novel feels like Malibu Rising set in the present with snow instead of sand. Four siblings finding their way back to each other in the most beautiful way.

I’m always impressed with authors that can write multiple POVs & timelines & have them all fleshed out well. From childhood through adulthood, I felt connected to all four of the main characters. The emotions of the siblings were palpable, & I loved all of them deeply. I would have liked to have a bit more knowledge about the side characters, who also seemed extremely lovable.

I highly recommend everyone pick this book up. Thank you to NetGalley for providing me such a special read.
