Join us in our Virtual Conference Room for a lively discussion of The Summer We Fell Apart by Robin Antalek.
About The Summer We Fell Apart
The Summer We Fell Apart by newcomer Robin Antalek is a poignant, funny, and totally engrossing novel of family disasters and sibling rivalry—and it marks the debut of a pitch-perfect new voice in contemporary American fiction.
In The Summer We Fell Apart we meet the dysfunctional Haas Family. The children of a once-brilliant playwright and a struggling actress, the four Haas siblings grew up in chaos—raised in an environment composed of neglect and glamour in equal measure. When their father dies, they must depend on their intense but fragile bond to remember what it means to be family despite years of anger and hurt. These brothers and sisters are painfully human, sometimes selfish, and almost always making the wrong decisions, but their endearing struggles provide laughter through tears—something anyone who’s ever had a sibling can relate to.

This looks like so much fun — and what a great idea! I’ve visited in person or by phone so many book groups since the book debuted in January — if you’d like I love to add to your discussion!
