I really enjoyed the puzzle in the center of all the quirky characters and oddball situations they got themselves into - think Carl Hiassan with a dash of Christopher Moore! I have never been adopted, though all of us never having gone through the process might have believed that we were at one time or another, but this story is more about what makes up a family rather than just focusing that aspect.

It is a fun romp throughout the South (including North Carolina where its set) and Germany. There is a part in the novel- I’m not giving anything away from the plot- where 4 of the characters are all working on the puzzle from different angles and seeing who gets what was a blast!
