We Are the Brennans is a story about an Irish Catholic family torn apart by secrets. It starts with Sunday Brennan getting a DWI and ending up in the hospital, and her going home to her family in New York. The story is broken up into chapters that are each narrated by a different character. I really loved this writing style. It really gives it a smooth flow. The characters are fantastic and I was left wanting to know a lot more about the Brennan family. The plot was interesting and I found myself flying through the book to find out what happened next. It really highlighted the complexities of family life, including secrets, trust, love, discovering that even your parents are not perfect, while still holding on to the strong family bonds formed as they were growing up. I absolutely cannot wait to read more by this author, they are an incredible storyteller.
