The Willoughbys by Lois Lowry

The Willoughbys by Lois Lowry is about... well, a lot of things! In this story you'll find an orphaned infant, a bereaved widower benefactor, 4 siblings who desperately wish to be orphans, a mother and son who survive an avalanche, a set of parents who desperately wish to be rid of their children, a lonely postman, and much, much more! What could all of those people possible have in common? Read The Willoughbys by Lois Lowry to find out!

This tongue-in-cheek novel is absolutely, laugh out loud, hilarious! I loved the way all of these seemingly unrelated people become connected in the end. I would recommend this quick read to anyone who needs a little "pick me up" or anyone who just needs a good book!
