It’s not her fault that her real mother walked out on the family or that her father has remarried yet again. With Dad away on business and her older sister visiting their mother in Paris, Shelley must face the “perfect” Preffyns’ reunion with only her prankster younger brother and her insecure new stepmother at her side.

Cooney, Shelley learns to appreciate all the members of her unusual family—including herself!—in ways she never anticipated. And she discovers things are often not as perfect as they seem.

Download or read book Family Reunion written by Eric Selby and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades Ethel Davis Hopper, known by everyone around town as a poison-dripper and a control freak, has hosted family reunions in her little slice of beautiful northern Vermont for what has burgeoned into five generations of Davis and Hopper offspring. This year's reunion will be different, though: she's planning to host her own living funeral. The extended family, described by Ethel's favorite granddaughter as people who cluster themselves in three factions, "like bunches of Sunnis, Shias, and Kurds," plans to gather at Ethel's dream home overlooking the quaint village, despite their confusion as to what the longtime organizer has in store for them. Even the far-flung and estranged Hopper clan intends to show up this year, mostly because they wouldn't miss the old harridan's send-off to the world. As the reunion approaches, this richly textured, dark yet comic novel reveals generations of family secrets and the inbred dysfunction that accompanies that history, much of it told through the journals of Ethel's late husband, Lyle. In her finest melodrama to date, Ethel serves up guilt-trips, barbs, and a self-serving, revisionist view of life with her loving husband to her long-suffering offspring. Come and see how much fun a Family Reunion can be. Our own families will seem tame by comparison.

Book excerpt: When the Anderson sisters reunite for one last summer at their family's cottage, a link to the past makes them rethink their futures...and their plans for the house that once felt like home. Lisa Anderson always thought that one day, she'd pass the family's lake house down to her daughter-but that was before her daughter started making plans of her own, or her business started to tank. Now, divorced, alone for the summer, and desperate to save her small gift shop, she does the unthinkable and returns to Evening Island, hoping a quick sale of the long-forgotten house can solve her problems. What she doesn't expect is for it to open her heart. Rachel may be an expert when it comes to other people's marriages, but she has a creeping sensation that she's failed at her own.

But when a friendly stranger starts to become familiar, she starts to think about what she truly wants in life, and what she's already given up. Ashley is no stranger to heartache, which is exactly why she never plans to experience it again. Leaving the island was never easy but returning may be something she lives to regret. As memories of the past creep up as quickly as the prospect of a future she never dared envision, Ashley begins to wonder if she's ready to say goodbye to this house again, or the man who just may have made her dare to believe in love.
